At first glance, it may seem like the coronavirus pandemic has completely redefined our approach to the traditional workplace. And while it is true that containment and quarantine measures have made distributed work an absolute necessity, it was not without precedent. At least not in the way you might think. The point is, as the consulting firm McKinsey pointed out, the shift to remote work was one of many inevitable trends: The pandemic has simply moved the timeline forward by about a decade. Distributed labor was already inevitable. The hybrid workplace, combining office collaboration and remote working, was already the future. The traditional fortress-walled approach to cybersecurity was already gradually becoming more outdated. Consider the following:
Look beyond the walls
(Image credit: Shutterstock) This isn't to say that monitoring your security perimeter isn't important anymore. You still need to make sure that your fortress, so to speak, remains secure. The importance of remote work simply forces you to think beyond the walls: your supply lines and your outposts, if we want to use the same analogy. Unfortunately, especially if you work in a regulated industry, this is often easier said than done for a number of reasons: Blocking access and implementing increasingly strict security controls is also not the answer to these problems. As countless studies in the past have shown, security measures that interfere with productivity are functionally unnecessary. People will find alternative solutions and there is no guarantee that these solutions will be safe. What can you do then?
(Image credit: Tresorit) The answer is surprisingly simple. All you need is a secure content sharing platform built with collaboration in mind. A solution that provides fully compliant and transparent end-to-end encryption. A solution like Tresorit.
Presentation of Tresorit: the security that accompanies your data
(Image credit: Tresorit) An alternative to tools like Dropbox and Google Workspace, Tresorit's end-to-end encryption is some of the best in the business. Compliant with GDPR, HIPAA, FINRA, TISAX and ISO27100, it offers comprehensive coverage for both email security and data exchange. Additionally, because it is based on a zero-trust architecture, passwords and encryption keys are not stored on or transmitted through the organization's servers. We'll forgive you for being a bit skeptical, of course. All software companies claim that their security is the best. All the software developers say that they can help you protect your data. The difference with Tresorit is that its services have been fully tested by FIY Cybersecurity, and the third-party security analyst found Tresorit's claims about its encryption to be perfectly accurate.
What does Tresorit bring to the table?

Your users will be free to collaborate, communicate and share content as they did before. The only difference is that you'll have peace of mind knowing that whether it's in the hands of a vendor, subcontractor or remote employee, your data is never outside of your control. When it comes to file storage, Tresorit's business plans offer up to 2TB per user with a file size limit of up to 20GB. Individual plans, on the other hand, max out at 2,5TB with a maximum file size of 10GB. Tresorit can be accessed in a number of different ways, depending on your organization's needs and infrastructure.

Available through Tresorit's Enterprise plan, Content Shield significantly bolsters the already comprehensive security of the platform. It enables a variety of features including: Perhaps most importantly, Tresorit offers all of this at a fraction of the cost typically associated with enterprise security solutions. Prices for individual plans start at €10.42/month. Business plans only cost a little more, at €14.50/month.
Time to secure your supply chain
(Image credit: Tresorit) Distributed work isn't going anywhere, and thanks to digitization, your company's supply chain is more complex and comprehensive than ever. To keep pace and ensure you don't put critical data at risk, you need software that's intuitive and highly secure. Tresorit is exactly that: a powerful and affordable platform to keep sensitive information secure in good hands.
