Pieter Danhieux and Fatemah Beydoun both have a long history of working remotely, but as their company moved to a completely remote work environment in response to the COVID-19 global pandemic, it presented its own set of challenges... along with some very compelling benefits. This unprecedented situation has shown many companies that remote work is not only possible, it's the future. And it's a great opportunity to improve cybersecurity and general security awareness.

In this podcast, Pieter and Fatemah detail how remote teams can be effective and secure, the benefits of access-anywhere collaboration tools and cybersecurity training, and how the time won back from eliminating commutes can be used to bolster a workforce to weather larger storms, including improving development practices and considering security much earlier. With cyberattacks on the rise, it's a great time to assess and improve your security culture.

Who is the custodian of this data? How might it be utilized? How should it be governed? Many new shades of grey have emerged in the last few months will be explored in this podcast.
