The new normal: Hybrid work means greater focus on endpoint security

Whether it’s a hybrid, remote, or in-office experience, endpoint vulnerabilities represent a real security risk. Companies must secure any potential access to their internal network from hacking and cyberattacks—which are more prevalent than ever.

How can organizations modernize to protect themselves against these threats?

Microsoft Edge as default browser for access to legacy web apps and better security

Moving 130,000 workers across 200 worksites in over 90 countries to a new browser is no simple feat. Just think of the challenge ensuring that legacy apps and sites built for local business still work.

To facilitate device management, GlaxoSmithKline enrolled every Windows 10 device in Microsoft Endpoint Manager, making available Microsoft Edge on their internal store for end users to install on-demand. Deployment only took four weeks, and it was so simple that no external services or support were needed.

Strengthening connection with remote communities with Windows 365

The coordination of moving employees around to better serve the people in remote areas of Nunavut, Canada, and provisioning hardware for remote, nontechnical staff was challenging for IT—even before the challenges of Covid-19.
