As more and more businesses allow their employees to work remotely, there are security and management issues arising such as:

1. Having an environment where confidential data needs superior protection. It becomes then more challenging to the company’s IT Staff to maintain same level of security on a number of devices with varying operating systems.

2. The probability that a device will be stolen or lost increases since there are varying factors on how a virtual worker will safe keep his or her devices. When this happens, crucial and sensitive data can be accessed by unauthorized persons.
