It should probably go without saying at this point, but the COVID-19 pandemic changed the landscape of business forever. While some companies may be “returning to work,” the way that we work has changed.
And with that change, comes an increased need for security. With so many people working from home, companies are seeing their most valuable assets, their intellectual property, living out in the cloud, behind unsecured home wifi networks. And while VPNs are great, they’re not foolproof.
On this episode of B2B Tech Talk, we sit down with Jim Fulton. Jim is the Senior Director of Product Marketing at Forcepoint, and we chatted all about:
- The driving forces behind the renewed interest in Data Security
- How the technology behind it has changed over the years
- Why IT professionals are not the bad guys when it comes to Data Protection & Security
- Where he sees technology going in the next year
