The global COVID-19 pandemic has left lasting effects on the workplace across all sectors. With so many people required to stay home, businesses in every field turned to remote work to open new possibilities for staying connected across distances. Now that the pandemic has largely subsided, many working environments have transitioned into a new hybrid workplace style. With this new approach to the office, employers and IT specialists have had to adapt to the increased risk of cybersecurity breaches within the company context. The first security measure businesses adopted during the pandemic was using VPNs that allowed employees to work remotely while still enjoying connectivity and security. Despite their popularity, however, VPN authentication can grant malicious third parties unrestricted network access and allow them to compromise an organization’s digital assets. To combat these vulnerabilities, organizations must consider establishing hybrid workplace network security. Investing in organizational cybersecurity means investing in the organization’s future; now, cybersecurity is as essential for the continuity and success of a business as the lock on its front door was once considered to be. This article will discuss types of network security breaches to watch out for. Then we will review practices you can adopt to establish hybrid workplace security and mitigate the risk of granting malicious third parties unrestricted network access. Three types of hybrid network security breaches to watch out for There are multiple potential gaps in every hybrid workplace network, including interpersonal communications, outdated software, and uninformed employees. Cybersecurity breaches at even a very small scale can grant hackers access to sensitive information, which could lead to the leakage of important data. This is a serious problem as, according to recent surveys, 45% of companies in the United States have been faced with data leakage in the past. With hybrid and remote workplaces becoming increasingly normal, workplace network security must become a priority. Here are three types of security breaches to watch out for. 1. Phishing attacks One type of cybersecurity attack is phishing. Phishing involves a hacker attempting to trick employees or co-workers into revealing sensitive information, granting access to protected files, or inadvertently downloading malicious software. Phishing is enacted by hackers who successfully adopt an employee’s personality, writing style, or company presence. According to recent statistics, 80% of breaches involve compromised identities, which can have a domino effect, leading to larger-scale company-wide cybersecurity breaches. 2. Ransomware attacks A second variety of cybersecurity breaches is ransomware. Ransomware is an attack where hackers encrypt files on a company’s network and demand payment to restore access. In other words, they gain private access to the workplace network and then essentially hold it hostage, demanding a “ransom” to prevent leaking any sensitive work data that might be stored there. Phishing can be used as an initial method of accessing a network so that |
