March Newsletter: The Workforce Goes Remote

By March 20, 2020May 3rd, 2020Newsletter

Like everyone else, I’ve been working from home—above is yesterday’s sunrise, as seen from my “office” window. The distancing is a drag, but I can’t complain about the view.

Remote work has been a known trend for some time. And then it became a mandate. For everyone. Now. Traditional means of remote access, like VPN—never scoped for this spike— have been overwhelmed, creating painful disruptions.

Our partners have responded with emergency offers, cloud-based ones we’ve been quickly deploying for our clients this week to ensure continuity without sacrificing security. Our CTO, Thomas Whang, wrangled up the top five.

I hope one or more can help. We may have to stay apart, but we’re all in this together. And staying connected securely has never been more critical.
