Instead of relying on local software, the cloud lets users access their data via any device, anywhere. A window to cloud servicesĬloud and cloud services are critical to empowering a remote and hybrid workforce.
I anticipate there will be a huge wave of hardware investment over the next five years by those motivated to get Windows 11. For some organizations, their technology is so outdated it will be well worth the upgrade. Microsoft has powered the Windows OS for over 30 years and many companies still use its legacy operating systems on old devices - even after support for the OS has ended. The TPM 2.0 mandate will encourage organizations to revisit their device inventory. Organizations should still leverage other security technologies such as firewalls, antivirus software, multi-factor authentication (MFA) and security monitoring to keep their organizations fully protected. Though TPMs are useful, enterprises should keep in mind these tools only protect devices locally.
They provide an added layer of security at the firmware level, beyond the baseline username and password. TPMs are hardware components that store encryption keys specific to the device and network. Microsoft already required equipment manufacturers to ship devices with support for TPM chips, but in order for Windows 11 to run, the user must have the TPM turned on. In an effort to be proactive about protection, Windows 11 will require devices to have Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 chips. Remote work has exposed organizations to increased security risks, with 74% of security leaders reporting more attacks since the start of the pandemic.
