• Switching to remote mode of working wasnt a
  smooth or an easy transition for most of the
  organisations in the first place. Many of them
  were compelled to jump on the bandwagon
  unprepared, to keep their operations running
  during the strict travel restricts. With work
  from anywhere becoming the new normal,
  organizations now need to take a fresh look at
  their strategies to ensure an enterprise-wide
  remote work for a long time.

• The disruptions in business due to the Covid
  situation and the lockdown have already driven
  many organizations to the edge. They should look
  for ways optimize their remote work
  infrastructure to contain costs while ensuring
  seamless productivity in the long run. They need
  to assess infrastructure usage and scale up or
  scale down as per the actual requirement.

• Employees are using internet and their own
  devices for working from home, widening the
  threat landscape and increasing chances of loss
  due to cyber security breach manifolds. IT teams
  need to identify and mitigate any potential
  threat at the earliest, for which they need
  real-time data on security postures of endpoints.

• Work from home also means that user behaviour may
  not be as consistent as in the office
  environment. Employees are no more working under
  the direct supervision and guidance of their
  managers. Thus, enterprises need a means for
  productivity monitoring and a new approach for
  performance assessment. Further, with employees
  working in isolation, organizations need to put
  in extra efforts in ensuring that their
  infrastructure operates at an optimal level
  without glitches to ensure good user experience.

• In short, what organizations need is actionable
  information or data for effective infrastructure
  monitoring, security posture monitoring, user
  experience monitoring and user productivity
  monitoring. The remote working tools should
  provide event logs and critical data in a way
  which is easy to comprehend and analyse to aid
  the managerial decision-making process.
