    Secure Your Anytime, Anywhere Workspace: A Layperson’s Guide To Protecting Your Remote Work Environment

    Future of Work and Workforce Development

    Synopsis

    Remote and hybrid work increase flexibility and productivity, but also widen the attack surface. Sign-ins and files now move between homes, offices, and public networks, making one careless tap a potential breach. Drawing on real incidents like the August 2025 Google and Salesforce breaches, Alvin Rodrigues reveals how small oversights escalate into major risks. Through interactive exercises, real-life analogies, and micro-action frameworks, participants will learn to recognise red flags, act fast, and embed protective habits. This session is critical as organisations rely on distributed teams and must cultivate everyday vigilance to maintain compliance, protect data, and ensure business continuity.

    Client Testimonials

    A knowledgeable cybersecurity speaker who delivers clarity, relevance, and value.

    Alvin is a very good speaker who can explain complex technical terms in a way that is easy to understand. He keeps the audience engaged, so the topic of cybersecurity never feels boring, and he gives a clear picture of the key points. One small feedback is that it would be even better if he could speak a little slower, as at the end, due to time limits, he had to talk very fast and couldn’t go into full detail. But this did not affect the overall value of the session. I would still highly recommend him to any organization planning a talk on this important topic.
