👩🎓 ProServeIT Academy: Cybersecurity Course
In light of the challenges posed by the changing work landscape, organizations must adopt solutions that enable them to remain competitive while keeping costs in check. Microsoft 365 offers a comprehensive suite of cloud-based technologies to help organizations achieve these goals. In the following sections, we'll take a closer look at some of the environmental, economic, and business challenges faced by organizations and how Microsoft 365 can help address them.
Embracing the new normal with Microsoft 365
Understanding the environmental, economic, and business challenges in crucial as the remote and hybrid work continues to increase, requiring organizations to reimagine how and where work gets done, aligning with employee expectations for greater flexibility. Organizations must ensure workplace security while managing the costs of the tools and internal resources that connect to a diverse set of end-user devices.
Security
Security teams are struggling to keep up with the rising complexity and damaging influences of cyberattacks. A broader surface area requires them to comprehend vulnerabilities more thoroughly, while on-premises tools coupled with cloud technology lead to added difficulties. Moreover, increased data regulations have intensified compliance requirements that need to be met.
Endpoint management
For businesses, endpoint management is essential for the fast onboarding of new employees while also lowering the time spent deploying devices. However, IT teams need help utilizing multiple tools and having limited visibility over device estates. Additionally, staying up-to-date on the adoption of cloud deployments and modern apps and handling BYOD/BYOPC (Bring Your Own Device/Bring Your Own Personal Computer) diversity are challenges that must be overcome when managing endpoints.
Cost-savings
Organizations must be agile and frugal to remain competitive as we face an unpredictable economic future. You need to ensure that employees can work efficiently from any location while meeting business requirements for scalability with secure solutions. Furthermore, employees must be empowered with the IT resources they need to stay productive even as costs become constrained.
