Omdia Research Reveals Critical Gaps in Workforce Security — Are You Prepared?
The way we work has changed. With 85% of work happening in the browser and 42% of employees working remotely, securing work— on every device — is more critical than ever. Yet, 95% of organizations have faced a browser-based attack in the past year.
The problem? Legacy security tools weren't designed for today's AI-driven, cloud-powered workplace. As SaaS adoption skyrockets and unmanaged devices become the norm, organizations face growing security gaps, visibility challenges and increased risk of data leakage.
Download the Omdia report, “The State of Workforce Security: Key Insights for IT and Security Leaders,” to discover:
- How SaaS adoption and BYOD are reshaping workforce security.
- Why traditional security measures fall short in protecting browser-based work.
- How SASE and secure browsers work together to prevent breaches and protect data — without disrupting productivity.
This independent research commissioned by Palo Alto Networks, and conducted by Omdia, provides key insights and actionable strategies to help IT and security leaders navigate today's workforce security challenges.
