Remote Work is Here to Stay: Here’s How to Make it More Secure
Steve Benton of Anomali says “remote work is here to stay,” and takes a closer look at how to keep it secure. Post Covid, flexible working has become the new norm and, for many organizations, has netted huge productivity gains. Covid also drove an accelerated digital transformation that put a majority of organizations’ infrastructure well and truly into the cloud and, hence, much of what employees interacted with (software, applications, services) on the internet. Supply chains and marketplaces followed suit. Put simply, it has become a fact that much of what employees connect with is remote to where they are – whether they are sitting in the organizations’ office, their own homes, or a coffee house nearby– so it may be a good time to start treating your employees as remote. Now, that may sound a tad weird but, honestly, when you look at the bigger threat landscape and the risk to organizations in terms of compromise– putting all your office workers and their offices ‘on the internet’ is a smart move because you now have only one work mode to manage and secure.
CNAPPs: The Business Case For Automating Cloud Security
Shai Morag of Ermetic presents an overview of CNAPPs, as he makes the case for automating enterprise cloud security. Security professionals agree that protecting cloud-based systems is more challenging and costly than keeping on-premises environments safe. According to one report, more than three-quarters of organizations are utilizing two or more cloud providers, which means increased complexity, security risk, and opportunities for errors. This is where automation can help. Automated cloud security tools can detect risks and threats more accurately and quickly, remediate them in a fraction of the time, perform the analysis needed for regulatory compliance, and improve defenses against future attacks. They can easily prove their return on investment to any organization willing to do the homework to understand how they work and their advantages.
