Digital transformation has brought new obstacles for an emerging remote workforce and with that, malicious attacks that target remote users. Organizations require visibility into remote user activity, authenticate and authorize users based on their need-to-know basis and establish a secure connection between the user and the network infrastructure.
Practices such as Virtual Private Network (VPN), No Zero Trust policy, or leveraging firewall policies for access management are often outdated and no longer are able to secure remote access to critical resources. Moreover, with its encouraging use by a larger workforce, it offers attackers more targets to exploit and gain access to the network traffic, granting access to critical infrastructure resources.
