on Telework During COVID-19 -

It is no secret that companies are experiencing an increase in security incidents following the transition from work in the office to work from home during the pandemic. There are a number of causes, including the difficulty of controlling the security of at-home technology equipment such as routers, printers, personal assistants and other IoT devices, an insecure WiFi. We also know that employees are more distracted tha ever before because they are in a new work environment. At home with members of their family, it is more difficult to separate work from home life, and they are concerned about the health and welfare of themselves and their families and about the spread of the virus. All this chaos and uncertainty leads to a distracted work force that is not as vigilant about data security.
