Remote work has become a vital part of modern business operations, but it introduces new risks to company security. With employees accessing critical systems from various locations and devices—often outside of the secure company network—vulnerabilities emerge that can be exploited by cybercriminals. This environment also creates challenges for organizations to stay compliant with various regulations and industry standards. Protecting sensitive data and maintaining compliance while managing a remote workforce has never been more important.

Remote work complicates adherence to important regulatory frameworks like GDPR, HIPAA, SOC 2, ISO 27001, and CCPA. Employees working from different regions or countries can trigger cross-border data transfer issues due to varying data protection laws. The challenge increases when managing personal devices (BYOD), third-party access, or external contractors. Companies need to ensure that remote workers adhere to the same cybersecurity standards and compliance protocols as those in the office to protect against legal and security risks.
