In other words, your large investment in a new platform may have proven useless unless that platform resonates with your workforce. This is why today's leading platforms like Microsoft Teams, Slack, and Workplace by Facebook have put customization and convenience at the top of their to-do list.

Read this infographic to learn about the 4 most commonly used standards for secure hardware used to protect today's devices.
