In conclusion, our latest analysis on malware and network attack trends show a clear need for
organizations to decrypt and inspect secure web traffic and to deploy modern anti-malware technologies
that use behavior-based or machine learning techniques to detect malware that signature-based
solutions will miss. As the wide variety of threats and techniques present in our other findings indicate,
organizations should implement a layered security approach with multiple, overlapping security services
including strong endpoint protection, mobile VPN, multi-factor authentication and more to better protect
employees working from home during the current crisis and beyond.
