As the pandemic prolongs the need to enable a remote workforce, state and local governments must rethink how they secure access to resources wherever their employees are working. The need to pivot and refocus security strategies adds an important perspective to NASCIO’s 2020 list of top IT priorities that state CIOs were already addressing, including security, cloud and innovation through technology, says Palo Alto Networks' Matthew Schneider. “States have seen their networks go from a few hundred or thousand nodes, to 100,000 in a matter of weeks,” he says. Schneider explains how the shift from office cubicles to the home office has inverted security demands on the network in a new podcast. Sponsored by Palo Alto Networks.
