Dusseldorf, Germany, September 1, 2021 - Many companies today are embracing the digital workplace, with a hybrid work environment consisting of both office and remote locations becoming more commonplace in the months ahead. 

With this in mind, market research and analyst firm IDC has created an assessment and analysis tool for Damovo that measures the maturity levels of current hybrid workplace models. The "Secure Hybrid Workforce" tool is suitable for medium-sized and large companies that have adapted their working models in the wake of the pandemic and now want to further shape and sustainably anchor them for the future. 

End-to-end security strategies as a success factor for hybrid work models

The tool includes targeted, IT-oriented questions around three topic areas: "Protection“, "Flexibility" and "Hybrid Workplace." The focus in particular is on security strategies already in place, and their implementation. 

"The measures that ensure continuous, secure access to the necessary resources regardless of location are crucial to the success of hybrid workplace models," says Dagmar Nies, Vice President Group Marketing at Damovo. "During this assessment particular emphasis is placed on topics such as endpoint security, identity & access management, cloud and SaaS delivery models, as well as overall employer experience."

Upon completion of the assessment the respondent will receive a personalised report that evaluates the maturity level of their company‘s hybrid working environment. Recommendations for future actions and next steps are also provided that will help organisations to further evolve their modern working environment securely and sustainably. 

Damar Nies concludes: "With the analysis of the most important success factors for hybrid working models, we enable our customers to easily put their hybrid working environment to the test. In addition, we show where the potential exists to further successfully transform their digital workplace."
