Are hybrid workers at more risk of cyber threats?

This report outlines cybersecurity risks introduced by hybrid work—such as insecure home networks, default credentials on remote edge devices, use of public Wi‑Fi enabling man-in-the-middle and evil twin attacks, and unpatched endpoints—and recommends controls like MFA, encryption for data at rest and in transit, endpoint firewalls, and application allowlisting to reduce exposure. It emphasizes shifting security focus from network perimeter to endpoints and data, and promotes ThreatLocker’s Endpoint Security Platform (Allowlisting, Ringfencing, Storage Control, Network Control, and Unified Audit) as layered defenses to secure access and limit malware propagation across diverse work locations.
