From natural disasters to politics, from supply shortages to travel restrictions, it's a complex world right now. And with the ongoing occurrence of COVID-19 cases, many of us are still trying to perform that tricky balancing act of working from home in some fashion. If that wasn't enough to juggle, an increasingly menacing presence lurks in the shadows and poses a bigger threat than ever  ̶  cybercrime.

Cybercrime comes in many forms, from the large-scale ransomware attacks on entire companies and networks, to the seemingly innocuous, yet malware-laden, link embedded in the email from the CEO that you just opened. As fully remote and hybrid workforces become the new norm, a perfect storm is brewing. With over 70% of workers saying they want flexible remote work options to continue, cybercriminals are working overtime to take advantage of this surge, resulting in 20% of companies indicating they've experienced a remote work-related security breach.

Chances are, many of your clients' employees are spending more time on websites, social media and especially online meetings. Meanwhile, an increasing number of malicious cybercriminals are unleashing everything in their arsenal, from phishing emails and fake texts, to robocalls and zoombombing.
