Security measures and password best practices have not taken priority in many regions during the shift to remote work due to the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a survey by OneLogin.

Nearly 1 in 5 (17.4%) global respondents have shared their work device password with either their spouse or child, potentially exposing corporate data.

External threats were also a factor with 36% of global respondents admitting they have not changed their home Wi-Fi password in more than a year, leaving corporate devices exposed to a potential security breach.
