A Buyer’s Guide to Optimizing Remote Employees’ Extended Network
The shelter-in-place mandates put in place earlier in 2020 sent most employees home, and for the next few months they strived to stay connected and productive, while IT teams scrambled to provide infrastructures to support them. Now many organizations have realized there are benefits to having a distributed workforce, and thus are focused on tackling some of the network-related challenges that have compromised employee experience.
Remote user access is one top-of-mind concern. When employees are remote, connecting to on-premises apps can be complex and convoluted— whether from corporate-owned or personal devices. Think multiple multi-factor authorization prompts and similar sources of frustration. With the list of business-critical apps and collaboration tools commonly used only getting longer, what started as an inconvenience is fast becoming a major productivity drain—and a huge time commitment for the IT teams tasked with responding to password reset help desk tickets.
But it’s important to remember that not all technology solutions are created equal, nor are the ways that different organizations can most benefit from them. This goal of this guide is to help organizations understand the three key factors to consider.

Defeating threats through user data: Applying UEBA to protect your environment
You’re facing a constant barrage of threats, some of which you don’t even know exist. The reality is that your users are behind many threats and breaches — whether maliciously or accidentally. Case in point: 69 per cent of organiations reported a recent insider data exfiltration attempt, and 28 per cent of breaches involved internal actors.1 As the typical point of entry for an attack, users are a difficult vector to monitor and secure. To confront the tidal wave of attacks, you need to hone your attention on users by harnessing the power of us ...
Security Operations Maturity Model
This white paper explores how to assess and evolve the principle programmes of the security operations centre (SOC): threat monitoring, threat hunting, threat investigation and incident response. LogRhythm developed the Threat Lifecycle Management (TLM) framework to help organisations ideally align technology, people and process in support of these programmes.
The TLM framework defines the critical security operations technological capabilities and workflow processes that are vital to achieve an efficient and effective SOC. LogRhythm’s Secu ...
Designing for the IoT as Intelligence Moves to the Edge
The IoT is evolving, from a sprawl of raw data sources into focused instances of processed information. Putting intelligence at the edge is creating demand for even more performance using less power and with lower latency. Understanding this, designers and manufacturers are developing and delivering the solutions needed to support doing more with less. Ultra-low power solutions are enabling battery-less designs to be deployed all around the network, each one producing valuable and actionable intelligence.
There are already billions of always ...
