Achieving an inclusive culture within your organisation requires leadership involvement to ensure integration of these expectations into the business mission. Starting with recruitment, inclusivity should be embedded into the foundations of a business to build a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace.

As leaders in the technology sector are striving to make progress toward equity for all workers, unfortunately discrimination still affects employees of underrepresented backgrounds. This includes gender identity, ethnic background and many other traits that contribute to the diversity of the IT department.

Access to corporate networks tended to be more controlled pre-Covid as employees were either in the office and secured via local and network credentials or used VPN to access systems. In both cases, employees are accessing content through corporate-controlled mechanisms. Now, this is not their sole access point with transition to a hybrid work environment. You need an entirely new approach to protecting the content that supports your customers and enables your teams — anytime, anywhere, and on any device.

In this boardroom discussion we want to evaluate how businesses can create a unified approach to data security to protect their organization from cyber threats.

• Has your organization been hit by a malware attack in the past 12 months?
• What tools are you using for cyber threat prevention?
• Do you have clear visibility into who has access to your business content?
• How do you implement rules such as Zero Trust in your organizations with regard to data protection and compliance?
