Cybercriminals love a crisis. As most of the workforce continues operating remotely, it’s imperative that businesses secure network connections to protect their customers, employees and assets from those taking advantage of the pandemic. Security leaders must evaluate how to keep employees productive and provide them access to company resources without opening themselves up to increased risk. The reality is many supported devices are not using secure private networks, but instead residential Internet to do their jobs.
Cybersecurity professionals must stave off almost constant attempts to breach network security in normal times, but during this global crisis, security leaders have seen a 300% increase in cyberattacks.
