Cyber Resilience at Home
Businesses that have had work-from-home options in place for a long time also have policies and guidance for establishing a functional and cyber-resilient home office. For those businesses that are new to work-from-home due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I hope that my recent experience will suggest some steps you can take even now to increase the cyber resilience of your home office.
