Overview

What is data security?

Data security is a set of protective measures designed to safeguard corporate data from unauthorized access, theft, or misuse. As people continue their transition to flexible and remote work, increasing data security should be made a top priority.

Types of workers

Secure the new world of flexible work

Every device that accesses corporate resources—including personal devices that are part of a BYOPC strategy—should be healthy, secure, and continuously managed.

Flexible and remote workers

Security and compliance are vital for flexible workers because all their communication occurs over the internet instead of within an organizational intranet.

People who enter and exit organizations frequently are at high risk for data loss. Strong data security practices can help prevent inappropriate sharing or use of sensitive data.

To be productive, people in limited roles need to be able to safely communicate with one another and must have secure, moderated access to corporate apps and services. Data security helps make this possible.
