Presentation synopsis:

Our workforce has changed, we are more remote, more able to be wherever, whenever and with whatever systems and devices we need to do our jobs, many times our own unsecured devices. This has changed the forefront of security risk from being at the perimeter of Corporate systems out to everywhere our employees are and with whatever devices they are carrying with them. Security needs to adapt and overcome this change in environment, in a way that meets and exceeds the needs of this new way of doing business, while keeping the end user's needs in mind.
