GRAPEVINE: Bright future for remote working, says Vodafone security expert

More remote working and heightened awareness of cyber threats will be post-Covid-19 positives for business.

Niall Tuohy, security product manager, Vodafone Ireland.

Greater numbers of people working from home and greater awareness of cyber threats are just some of the likely positives on the horizon for business.

Phishing attempts, scams or ‘scareware’ through email, text and social media have risen markedly since Covid-19. According to the National Fraud Intelligence Bureau in the UK, victims lost over £800,000 to coronavirus scams in February.
