Working remotely using cloud applications is now the norm for getting things done. But while these shifts offer greater flexibility, they also bring new security challenges. For years, virtual private networks (VPNs) were the go-to solution for securing remote access. But when used at such a large scale, VPNs are inefficient, slowing users down and undoing the productivity gains that come along with remote work. Worse, they expose organizations to unnecessary security risks like lateral movement attacks.

As organizations embrace social media for networking, marketing, and recruiting, platforms like Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and X (formerly Twitter) have become integral to business operations. While social networking sites offer numerous benefits for productivity, collaboration, and engagement, they also introduce significant security challenges, particularly concerning the handling and potential exposure of sensitive data.

In the modern world, data is a precious asset. That means malicious actors will go to great lengths to get their hands on your organization’s information — and if that information is in the cloud, it’s especially vulnerable to those outside forces. You likely have some cybersecurity measures in place, but are you prepared for modern breaches that use constantly evolving tactics to exploit vulnerabilities and gain access?

Remote and hybrid workplaces are here to stay. In August 2023, 20% of U.S. employees worked from home at least once. By 2025, more than 36 million U.S. employees will work remotely, up from 19 million in 2019. That’s good news for employers who want the widest talent pool and employees who want to do their best work from anywhere. However, it’s also potentially good news for cyber criminals, who can exploit remote access policies to compromise cloud data.

Since its debut in 2022, ChatGPT has radically reshaped the way we interact with technology. Generative AI (genAI) platforms like ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Meta AI have rapidly gained in popularity, offering capabilities that range from rewriting text to generating creative content. While these tools have created new opportunities for enhanced productivity, they’ve also introduced new security risks — particularly when users unknowingly share sensitive information.

The rise of cloud-based software applications has changed the way many companies operate. Leveraging SaaS platforms allows organizations to streamline their workflows and better accommodate remote and hybrid workforces. However, spreading your data throughout the cloud can leave it vulnerable — unless you have strong SaaS security practices in place.

The rise of hybrid and remote work has created unprecedented opportunities for forward-thinking organizations and their employees. At the same time, it has also created unprecedented opportunities for threat actors. The ability to access sensitive files from almost any machine, while convenient, can be a profound security risk. That’s why it’s worth considering a few real-world ZTNA use cases.

In the modern cloud landscape, the question isn’t whether or not you need a cloud access security broker (CASB) — it’s how to choose the right one and implement it effectively. Malicious attacks are on the rise, and so are remote and hybrid workforces, making it more important than ever to be proactive about data security.

Cybersecurity leaders already know the importance of a data loss prevention (DLP) solution. They also know DLP has its limits. As cloud applications have grown more common, they’ve introduced gaps in the DLP shield. SaaS apps present new opportunities for data leakage, accidental sharing, and insider threats. To plug those gaps, you need a cloud access security broker (CASB).

In this increasingly cloud-first world, data protection is more important than ever. With so many organizations relying on cloud applications to get work done, keeping sensitive information secure is a top priority. But balancing convenient access with strong security measures is no easy feat. In fact, only a small fraction of security leaders feel truly confident in their current data security measures. Lookout recently surveyed 100 executives to get their take on data security in the cloud.

The time has come for enterprise risk management to change. Mobile devices have become core to our personal and professional lives, yet most enterprises remain focused on traditional PC endpoints. Although many of the same elements of risk that affect PCs also apply to mobile endpoints, simply extending current PC security controls to your mobile fleet is ineffective. Enterprise risk management needs to evolve to address mobile risks, and security professionals must architect mobile-specific security.
