Learn new strategies and tactics needed to identify, assess, and react to vulnerabilities and threats promoted by COVID-19.

1 CPE

The COVID-19 coronavirus prompted many organizations to quickly implement remote work programs. While these programs were meant to address a temporary crisis, it is highly likely they will boost future remote work numbers. With more employees working from home, client sites, and the road, an amorphous digital fence grants insiders greater responsibility but also less direct oversight. Within this new paradigm, conventional insider risk early warning resources are degraded. Specifically, valuable insights gained from regular face-to-face observation and engagement by managers, colleagues, and clients become limited. A new strategy is therefore required to address early warnings in this new environment, one that counteracts the natural tendency for remote workers to be out of sight, out of mind. Instead, this requires a different form of management, placing greater weight on understanding employees and the critical events affecting them. To underpin this new strategy, new tactics are needed to identify, assess, and react to anomalous activity, new vulnerabilities, and threats.
