We all know life is unpredictable. Unplanned events such as natural disasters, severe weather, illness, and travel restrictions make it nearly impossible to continue “business as usual.” Is your organization prepared for a scenario in which traditional ways of working aren’t feasible for a considerable amount of time? Will you need to make tradeoffs between security and business continuity? If you’re considering or already deploying a digital workspace solution, you may be more prepared than you think.
Through a modern digital workspace solution like VMware Workspace ONE, organizations can rapidly adapt to unexpected changes in the workplace at scale. By combining a cloud-based, zero trust platform Workspace ONE gives IT teams the ability to remotely deliver any app to any device, enabling workforces of all kinds to work from anywhere, instantly, while safeguarding sensitive information.
