Hybrid work models have become a mainstay among Singaporean businesses, even as people return to their pre-pandemic routines. In fact, a report by the Center for Creative Leadership finds that 63% of organisations will continue to embrace this model for the next three to five years. One of the biggest challenges in building a seamless hybrid working experience is securing the organisation's most critical resources, while maintaining seamless access for employees.

Further complicating matters is the increased adoption of cloud-based resources which store files, apps and workflows in third-party servers. Their lack of visibility heightens the risk of data theft and compromise, making the need to review and update cybersecurity strategies greater than ever.

This includes setting password policies that require a long and complex combination of letters, numbers and symbols as well as preventing them from being stored in a note-taking or a word-processing software.
