Securing Federal Remote Infrastructures in a Distributed Workforce
With the COVID-19 pandemic, for the first time, the majority of the federal workforce is decentralized. In March, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) released an Enterprise VPN Security Alert encouraging organizations to adopt a heightened state of cybersecurity as it pertains to maintaining their VPNs. While this may seem logical, the fact that CISA felt the need to address the matter highlights the struggle that all agencies have faced for ages.

Keeping IT Ops and Security Teams Close Despite Physical Distance
Efficient and effective collaboration across IT operations and cybersecurity teams remains an ever-present challenge for technology leaders. The silos that so commonly develop around and within these groups result from a variety of factors, with tool proliferation, strategic alignment, culture and many other factors contributing to the problem.

While the threat of data breaches and phishing are not new, agencies are facing growing risk as bad actors focus on taking advantage of inconsistent security across the dispersed Federal workforce. In a recent Cybersecurity Magazine article, I discuss why the approach federal agencies are taking to strengthen security must be restructured and refreshed.
