Although the COVID-19 pandemic is anything but over at this point, millions of Americans are inoculated against the virus and its four variants. This means that more states than ever before are easing or entirely eliminating restrictions that took effect during lockdowns that began more than a year ago.
For some businesses, lifting restrictions has meant calling employees back to the office. For many others, however, the work-from-home business models adopted early on in the pandemic are here to stay. While working from home offers businesses a number of perks and advantages, it also comes with new liabilities and threats to manage.
Among these is the threat to a company’s information security. When so many employees are accessing secure information from their home networks, each connection represents a chance for ne’er-do-wells to exploit weaknesses in security measures.
Business owners can do a lot with technology to secure their sensitive information and prevent a data breach, even when employees are working from home. Still, there’s a considerable risk when so many individuals are trying to remotely access company servers from potentially compromised networks.
A breach may never happen, or it may be inevitable. When these are the possible outcomes employers are faced with, it makes sense to invest in cyber liability insurance to protect a business against the fallout of a data breach.
