Let’s not turn a blind eye to the possible issues around security, moving to remote working ways that a lot of InfoSec policies have actually been jeopardized and will require to be resolved if remote working is to continue in some capability in the long term.

That stated, not all digital improvements have actually succeeded and there prevail risks which companies require to prevent.
