CDW Tech Talk Discusses How to Build a Secure Future in the Age of Remote Work

Organizations trending toward a hybrid work environment must face new considerations in building a security framework.

Joe Kuehne is an Associate Editorial Director at BizTech magazine.

As organizations consider a partial return to the office, they will need to factor in new security concerns. With data being created and accessed across a distributed environment, threat actors will take advantage of a widening attack surface.

Amid recent reports of high-profile security breaches, this week’s CDW Tech Talk series webcast will detail the key elements businesses need to protect against cyberthreats in a hybrid work world.

Tyler McChristian, field solution architect for information security at CDW, will join the conversation to discuss the new security concerns facing organizations and some common frameworks they can employ to better protect against attack.
