As we noted in our last post, the work-from-home transition has dramatically increased wireless network workloads. As more people with more devices consume more bandwidth, Wi-Fi networks based on outdated equipment and legacy standards are experiencing more connectivity, performance and management issues.
Worldwide Wi-Fi traffic has surged to record levels as business, governments, schools and hundreds of millions of people have become reliant on their wireless networks. The increased traffic volume has also brought performance challenges, with increased reports of dropped connections, slow downloads, increased interference and broadband restrictions.
Data protection is just one component of a disaster recovery plan.
What would happen to your business in the event of a disaster?
According to experts, the vast majority of business owners would respond, “I don’t know.” The sobering reality is that very few businesses have disaster recovery (DR) plans — of those, very few are complete and up-to-date.
Single sign-on gives end-users just one strong password to remember to access multiple applications and services.
Human memory is fickle. We forget the name of someone we just met, where we parked our car at the mall, even our anniversary. Remembering passwords just adds to the burden.
Virtually all companies today depend on computer networks to link employees, suppliers and customers, exchange information and facilitate a variety of essential day-to-day tasks. Unfortunately, that makes them susceptible to cyberattacks. It’s why all companies need an incident response (IR) plan — a structured process for detecting, responding to and recovering from cybersecurity incidents.
The Twitter hack last month demonstrates once again why managing access rights and user identities has become a critical element of cybersecurity. Hackers used stolen credentials to access the social media platform’s internal tools and commandeer the accounts of a virtual Who’s Who of politicians, celebrities and technology magnates.
These attacks are now the majority of threats as hackers become more professionalized. Join our webinar to learn how Panda Adaptive Defense can better protect your systems, wherever they are, from these new threats.

Many organizations have had to scramble to implement technologies that enable work-from-home staff to access applications and data. Now that the initial transition is over, organizations should take the time to ensure they have well-defined policies and procedures governing remote work.
Many organizations lack a clear understanding of their role and responsibilities when it comes to securing the cloud.
The COVID-19 pandemic has magnified the value of cloud computing in business operations. The cloud supports work-from-home strategies by enabling remote access to applications and data, while also providing a cost-effective path to scalable IT infrastructure and innovative services.
