Work From Home
Overview
Since organizations may not have ample number of laptops for remote workers, employees may be able to supply their device if they could be enabled to securely access business applications and systems. If new laptops can be shipped to employees, remote workers need to be able to install a management agent that enables the IT staff to deploy critical business and security applications remotely.
The CISO and security teams must continue to protect sensitive data while teleworking. Additionally, IT and Security operations must continue to work together to patch and remediate vulnerabilities quickly.
Traditional remote access solutions were architected to accommodate traveling employees and occasional access from home, not the entire workforce. Now, IT must rapidly scale their remote access solutions to accommodate most if not all the organization’s workforce.
