Organizations with a remote workforce face technological and business risks, but these challenges can be mitigated with the right approach. Here are common risks of remote work and how organizations can mitigate them: Security: Organizations need to ensure their data and applications are secure when accessed remotely—without limiting access to employees who need it. Network performance: It’s also important that remote employees who use public internet connections or share broadband with family can access cloud applications to do their work without seeing a decline in performance. Employee management: Managers who aren’t experienced with remote teams can find it difficult to manage workers who aren’t in the same building.
