Home networks are identified as the weakest link, with 50 per cent of IoT devices having critical vulnerabilities, and routers now represent over 50 per cent of the most exploitable devices<\/p>\n

“\/Home networks are identified as the weakest link, with 50 per cent of IoT devices having critical vulnerabilities, and routers now represent over 50 per cent of the most exploitable devices<\/span>With Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s fresh calls to revive work from home, companies now face a very different landscape, more sophisticated cyber threats, stricter data regulations, and widespread use of cloud and AI tools. Managing a mix of in-office and remote employees introduces new technical and operational challenges, from access control to device management and collaboration gaps.<\/p>\n

According to SentinelOne, an American cybersecurity company, the major cybersecurity threats associated with remote working are insecure Wi-Fi Networks, Shadow IT, unsecured home networks, poor endpoint protection, absence of encryption, exploiting collaboration tools and no real-time security monitoring.<\/p>\n

A report by DTEX System\u2019s Insider Risk Index Research team reveals that cybersecurity threats increased 58 per cent since remote work adoption, with 83 per cent of companies experiencing at least one attack in 2024, and remote workers are three times more likely to accidentally expose data than office employees, costing an average of $17.4 million annually per organisation.<\/p>\n

The report highlights that about 67 per cent of Fortune 1,000 employees use unauthorised apps, with an average company having 975 unknown cloud services versus 108 tracked ones. And 48 per cent of organisations suffered data breaches from personal devices, despite 95 per cent allowing their use for work.<\/p>\n
