iboss is a Proud Cybersecurity Awareness Month Champion

October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month. Now in its 18th year, Cybersecurity Awareness Month continues to educate people about the importance of cybersecurity and help ensure that everyone has the resources they need to be safer and more secure online. 

At the start of the pandemic, most organizations quickly shifted from a traditional office-based workforce to one that is primarily remote or hybrid. Almost two years later, many organizations continue to be in the same boat. Realistically, the modern workforce has changed forever. Employees are working from anywhere, and that’s here to stay.  

With employees working from ‘anywhere,’ organizations need to shift how they approach network security. The castle and moat approach doesn’t work, as users are no longer confined to the four walls of an office. This means network security must shift to the cloud and follow users regardless of where they’re located. Employees want (and need) anytime, anywhere access to any application. By shifting to the cloud, organizations can ensure their employees stay productive, without sacrificing security.  

This year, iboss committed to be a Cybersecurity Awareness Month Champion. And, today we kick off our “Cybersecurity Awareness Month Tour.” 

Throughout the month, iboss will offer tips and tricks that organizations can implement to strengthen their cybersecurity postures. We’ll also participate in webinars and events  to help educate customers, partners and employees on how they can stay safe online.
