802 Secure, a provider of Wireless IT and IoT Security solutions, recently announced it has released a new solution to help protect the remote office worker from the challenges of the evolving cyber threats of wireless security blind spots.

In order for enterprises to stay ahead of this new threat vector, including 5G connectivity, 802 said it provides real-time visibility into the home network, corporate assets and other connected devices that are vulnerable to attack, detecting advanced threats such as rogue cellular towers - helping to eliminate the security blind spot and reducing business risks.

"As organizations strive to reduce the business risk from remote workers, 802 Secure continues to focus on detecting and assessing unmanaged, unsecured and mis-configured IT and IoT devices within the home environment to reduce exposure states," said Garry Drummond, 802 CEO.
