"The COVID-19 pandemic had a huge impact on remote working. According to the Office for National Statistics, in the first quarter of 2025 more than a quarter (28%) of working adults in Great Britain enjoyed a hybrid approach to their office location. Another study conducted in April found that 21.5m Brits (39% of the population) work from home at least some of the time."
"But hybrid working isn't a benefit that is evenly distributed across professions. Beaming claims a staggering 81% of UK small businesses support remote working. While the benefits to employees are clear, allowing to staff to work from home can be a security nightmare. So, how can a small business ensure its employees, business data, finances and reputation, stay safe in a world of constantly evolving digital threats?"
Hybrid and remote work remain widespread, with 28% of working adults in Great Britain using a hybrid approach and 21.5 million Brits working from home at least some of the time. A reported 81% of UK small businesses support remote working. Remote work moves sensitive data beyond local networks, increasing exposure to interception and compromise. Common threats include man-in-the-middle attacks on public Wi-Fi and phishing via email or text. Small businesses face risks to employees, business data, finances, and reputation. Effective security measures are necessary to protect distributed workforces against evolving digital threats.
