Summary

With two-thirds of the North American and European workforce reporting that they work outside of their corporate office at least occasionally every month, it's imperative that business leaders initiate programs that keep their workforce productive and connected while mobile and remote. Security and risk (S&R) professionals serve a critical role in protecting the business from data security breaches, and they must work collaboratively with their infrastructure and operations (I&O) colleagues as providers of the technology and developers of the strategies that keep their workforce connected. However, you can only succeed if you work in conjunction with leaders across the business to align with the firm's mobile and remote work strategies. This report outlines the business and IT impact of Forrester's solution for S&R and I&O executives leading mobile security and operations initiatives. This report provides S&R and I&O leaders with a framework for creating mobile and remote working programs and highlights examples of how other businesses are applying these lessons to their unique business challenges.
