Free eBook from VMware - Anywhere Workspace for Dummies

 

Last March 2020, we entered lockdown, and this in turn led to a new way of working for a lot of people.

I instantly went from working in offices across the UK to then being a completely home-based worker and this in turn led to the acronym WFH (working from home).

In the UK we are now emerging from the “work from home if you can” to a hybrid working model of perhaps going back into the office full time, a few days a week, or remain working from home.

What does this mean for IT professionals?

We’ve now had to develop new support skills and new ways of building and maintaining our corporate IT systems. Perhaps this is now a combination of corporate devices and BYOD (bring your own device) hardware.

We still need to maintain the security of our system and this is now becoming more complex.

People now want to work from anywhere.

“The nature of work has changed as a result of the global pandemic, and organizations have had to keep up. In this guide, learn more about the lasting impacts on the landscape of work and employee expectations. Delve into the emerging technologies needed to support today’s distributed workforce and keep pace with your competition, including Endpoint Security, Virtual apps/desktops, Zero Trust Security, Identity and Access Management, Cloud App Security, SD-WAN, Cloud Gateway, SASE and Experience Management. Understand workplace safety needs with the return to the office, and use cases for delivering exceptional employee experiences for this new flexible workforce.”


With all the above in mind, our friends at VMware have kindly produced an ebook
