MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Oct 7 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) — MobileIron, (NASDAQ: MOBL), the mobile-centric security platform for the Everywhere Enterprise, today announced the results of a new study, which revealed that more than 80% of global employees do not want to return to the office full-time, despite one in three (30%) employees claiming that being isolated from their team was the biggest hindrance to productivity during lockdown.
The COVID-19 pandemic has clearly changed the way people work and accelerated the already growing remote work trend. This has also created new security challenges for IT departments, as employees are increasingly using their own personal devices to access corporate data and services. Adding to the challenges posed by the new “Everywhere Enterprise” – in which employees, IT infrastructures, and customers are everywhere – is the fact that employees are not prioritizing security. The study found that one-third of workers (33%) consider IT security to be a low priority.
