Mobility in computing is becoming a primary driving factor for businesses, especially following the Covid-19 pandemic. When the pandemic hit, many businesses were not ready to send their workers home and did not have the networking infrastructure in place to support secure remote access to business resources. The move to support remote access not only hit businesses but also major internet and cellular providers who were also not set up to handle the massive changes in demand for service. Consider a small to medium sized business (SMB) of your choosing. In a 2-3 page APA-formatted paper, address the following:
- Where should the business focus its networking hardware configuration: physical wiring or wireless?
- Which telecommunications and/or networking components should the business acquire and implement to provide secure access to business resources and information?
- Which security challenges does the company face in supporting remote access for employees?
