Why VPN Isn’t Enough: Supporting a Remote Workforce in the Post-COVID Era

With the rapid development of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) in 2020, many security professionals had to come up with disaster recovery (DR) plans and make quick decisions to allow remote work en masse. The goals: keep the organization productive during this crisis and ensure that any unacceptable security risks are not created in the process. While most DR plans focus on maintaining productivity in the face of a single catastrophic event, Coronavirus represents a long-term threat that might stretch the typical disaster recovery model to its brink of coverage.
Join Morey Haber, CTO/CISO of BeyondTrust and author of four cybersecurity books, in this webinar for practical guidance on how to quickly implement and scale strong security protocols to enable long-term remote work. He will also cover:

• Risks and Challenges of VPNs
• Shadow IT and free, or consumer-grade, tools
• Bring your own device (BYOD) in the Post-COVID Era
• Secure remote access & endpoint security – the foundation for effective remote working
