This should account for everything for communication channels, leadership, infrastructure, technology and more.

Organizations should ensure they have strong secure email security in place to mitigate aggressive phishing attacks.<\/p>\n<p>In cases where phishing links are clicked by employees, staff, partners and contractors, cloud application security, Office 365 security and advanced endpoint protection solutions are required to mitigate malware from compromising networks or stealing credentials.<\/p>\n<h2>Protect your many endpoints<\/h2>\n<p>Organizations need to be prepared for an influx of attacks impacting endpoints. A single employee working remotely could click a phishing link that could lock data via ransomware, steal credentials or gain access to the corporate network.<\/p>\n<p>A sound security strategy for remote workforces always includes proactive endpoint protection (or next-generation antivirus) that mitigates attacks before, during and after they execute. More advanced approaches include automated rollback to return infected Windows PCs to a previously clean state.<\/p>\n<h2>Work-from-Home VPN Solutions for Remote Workforces<\/h2>\n<p>To help organizations cost-effectively implement VPN technology for their rapidly expanding work-from-home employees, SonicWall is making its remote access products and services available to both new and existing customers via deeply discounted rates.
