When it comes to securing the risks in order to reap the benefits of remote work, where should you start? With less office space and without all the costs associated with maintaining a physical location, remote workers save businesses an average of $11,000 per year per remote employee. When remote workers are out of your direct influence — working from personal devices and using public Wi-Fi — their digital actions are tougher to secure. Too often, organizations put a remote work security policy into practice but fail to continuously revisit and update it. When remote workers log in, their remote access means higher risk, so make sure they only have access to the tools they need to do their job.
