You likely have employees who work outside the office at least some of the time, if not working remotely all the time. Therefore, you owe it to yourself and your business to equip your team with the tools and resources they need to be successful. We recommend that you carefully consider the technology you provide for your employees, especially when they work out of the office part of the time, as well as how your team will access these tools and resources.

With the right approach, you can use technology like remote access tools and virtual private networks to ensure that your team always has what it needs to be productive, anytime, anywhere. Let’s explore the benefits of these solutions.

Remote Access Solutions

When you have remote workers, you tend to rely on the cloud for much of your tool and data access. The cloud can host your files, email solution, and business applications, allowing you to access them without physical location being an issue. This helps your team stay productive wherever they happen to be located. With the right remote setup, they can work across time zones, states, or even continents.

Virtual Private Networks

VPNs are a must for businesses with remote workers. Unless you use a secured connection, hackers and other cybercriminals could potentially steal data or observe it while it’s in transit, creating opportunities for data leaks. A VPN encrypts data while it moves to and from your network, meaning that only those with the decryption keys can unscramble the data for proper usage.

A Note on Flexibility and Agility

Implementing remote access and virtual private networks allows your team to be more flexible with their approach to work. With these technologies on your side, your team can work from any location provided they have an Internet connection point. Furthermore, when you have resources and tools located in the cloud for easy access, you suddenly broaden your horizons for who you hire in the first place. You broaden your talent pool when remote work is a possibility.
