Compared to mature processes and hardened systems for office locations, personal and home networks tend to be less secure and expose both companies and their employees to new risks and attacks. According to [Infosecurity Magazine](https://www.linkedin.com/company/infosecurity-magazine/), cyber insurance providers are taking note. Companies are likely to be asked more questions about their security arrangements and recovery plans – and especially how those plans consider [#remoteworking](https://www.linkedin.com/feed/hashtag/?keywords=remoteworking&highlightedUpdateUrns=urn%3Ali%3Aactivity%3A6669298406109843456) situations. It’s even more critical to assess your network and potential security risks as the work environment flexes between onsite and home – to satisfy any new cyber insurance provider requirements and for your peace of mind.
