COVID-19 has caused a fundamental shift in the way many of us
work. Instead of being in an office, we are working from home. We
no longer have our colleagues close by, we are working on our own
computers and other devices, and we are trying to make do with less
than ideal setups.
It also appears that remote work, at least part time, will be
the new normal for the foreseeable future. Because of that,
employers who did not have remote work policies in place should be
thinking about how to create and implement them.
At the same time, every organization and public body will
experience privacy breaches, and remote work has increased the
risks. Knowing what a breach is, and being prepared for it, are key
to both preventing breaches and limiting the damage when one
happens.
