The workforce has become increasingly more virtual over the past several months as companies large and small embraced remote working arrangements.
However, with the increased digitization also comes the increased risk of cybersecurity threats. Without recognizing the potential safety issues that come from a distributed workforce, leaders leave their company and employees exposed.
In fact, a survey by software company Ping Identity revealed that 47% of executives stated that they expect a large portion of their employees to work three or more days outside of the central office next year.
The report also showed that 85% of executives believe that investments into identity security are essential to workplace mobility and the user experience.
This shift means that organizations need to seriously consider investing in identity and access security technology to incorporate a zero-trust security model for distributed workers.
Zero-trust security models essentially treat everyone as potential threats and require verification before providing someone with access to data. Doing so can help employees avoid challenges involving security, thus boosting their productivity.
