We are facing uncertain times as our personal and business life is being impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. To help protect everyone’s health and safety, work-from-home mandates have been put in effect. Attackers know that employees who work at home are likely not as secure – uncertain times are the best times for adversaries.
But how do organizations ensure they are protecting their employees, their critical systems, and their sensitive data in the best possible way? There are a lot of “solutions” out there and customers need a guide – a trusted advisor – to find a way through this jungle.
Partnering for Business Continuity and a Secure Remote Workforce
BlackBerry is working with our distributor and reseller partners around the world to ensure critical business operations run without unnecessary disruptions, and employees contribute while working at home in the same productive and secure manner as when they are in the office.
The BlackBerry partner community is running hundreds of virtual events, advising customers on securing home offices, securing sensitive business data on BYOD, and hardening employees’ private laptops or desktops.
BlackBerry offers a suite of secure productivity solutions to ensure employees can work remotely without putting the corporate network or their personal devices at risk:

It also outlines steps IT and cybersecurity teams can take to implement strategies to support collaboration and productivity for remote employees critical to business operations.
