TLDR The FBI reports that cybercrime rose by 300% in early 2020. Targeted attacks on remote employees rose by 5x within the first 6 weeks of lockdown. 20% of businesses suffered a cybersecurity breach which could be linked back to remote employees. In order for IT departments to meet the new demands of remote connections, passwordless security is a no-brainer.
