The rapidly evolving technology has been one of the major factors leading to digital transformation worldwide. However, it is also not surprising to know that it has also proportionally raised serious concerns around data security, especially with increasing malicious activities including data breaches and leaks.
At present, several companies are consistently using connected networks to work remotely. Also, we are now working from home and often share our laptop or computer screen during meetings.
