Remote working is here to stay. While it wasn\u2019t clear whether the adoption of remote working and hybrid working would remain after the COVID-19 pandemic, new research reveals that decentralized working is likely to remain in place for the foreseeable future.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Fortinet\u2019s new Work-from-Anywhere Global Study<\/a> released today surveyed 570 companies and found that 60% are still accommodating employees working from home, while 55% are embracing a hybrid work strategy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, the growth in adoption of work-from-anywhere has introduced new security risks that organizations are struggling to keep up with. For instance, Fortinet\u2019s research shows that 62% of companies had a data breach they could at least partially attribute to work-from-anywhere employee vulnerabilities over the past 2 to 3 years.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The high rate of breaches highlights that remote working hasn\u2019t just introduced theoretical risks, but exposures that are being actively exploited by threat actors to gain access to sensitive information.<\/p>\n

The risks of remote working\u00a0<\/h2>\n

Organizations cited a lack of cybersecurity training for hybrid workers as a top concern in work-from-anywhere environments, as well as how to best extend corporate security to home offices and remote locations.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The challenge of securing decentralized working environments is amplified by the fact that organizations have limited visibility over user\u2019s home environments, branch offices and off-site locations. This makes asset ownership unclear, and it can be difficult to enforce zero trust<\/a> access controls and deploy patches to devices.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Although the report found that most organizations haven\u2019t mitigated risks associated with remote working, it did show that CISOs<\/a> and security leaders are investing in new technologies to increase their cyber resilience<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

More specifically, respondents cited network access control, antivirus<\/a> solutions, multi factor authentication<\/a> (MFA) and cloud security<\/a> solutions such as cloud access security broker (CASB<\/a>) as the most important tools for securing work-from-anywhere environments in the future.\u00a0<\/p>\n
