COVID-19 saw many organizations racing to stand up remote work infrastructure to enable work from home. In their haste, many businesses had to prioritize speed over security, and left themselves open for attack.

Our incident response team saw threat actors exploiting gaps that emerged as a result of the global pandemic. In this webcast discussion with IDG, we look at how the risk landscape changed, address the reality around threat volume, and offer tips for staying secure.
