Work from Home = New Challenges for Security Teams
Remote work has presented challenges for many SOC staff members. No doubt reduced staff numbers
made their jobs even more difficult. Respondents cited communications within their security team as the
most significant challenge mitigating threats while working remotely, followed by communications with
other IT departments. Twenty-nine percent reported difficulty investigating attacks. There was little
significant variance in problems between U.S. and U.K. companies, although a higher percentage of U.S.
companies 40% had more difficulty communicating with other IT teams compared to 22% in the U.K.
