According to recent research by Capita, Organisations are failing to adequately support secure remote working practices.
Despite the undoubted productivity benefits stemming from more flexible working practices, only half (52%) of the 2000 UK knowledge workers Capita surveyed said BYOD was an option for them. Even fewer, just 14%, said they were encouraged to use their own device.
The vast majority of employees (92%) said they believe it’s the organisation’s job to secure remote working, yet over two-fifths (42%) claimed current security policies make it difficult to do their job.
