Digital transformation

Cybersecurity: the backbone of a successful COVID-19 digital transformation

COVID-19 quarantines have urged many organizations to embrace digital transformation as they were compelled to move their processes, employees, communication and collaboration to virtual space.

But the change creates not only new growth opportunities, it also brings new cybersecurity challenges. Now, at the rapid speed, IT security teams must come up with technological measures and lay down the right foundation for the lasting security of these new digital processes.

In support of such, we have prepared a list of essential technologies and their free trials & special conditions that on the way to digital transformation provide a solid basis for cybersecurity.

The list designed to address cybersecurity in the three main digital transformation domains — users, resources and collaboration.

USER: employee productivity and security
