Many organizations were forced to quickly transition to the work-from-anywhere (WFA) model to continue their operations and remain in business despite the restrictions imposed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many decisions were made in a rush, and cybersecurity decency tools were not in place to support this transition. This project aims to evaluate the cybersecurity awareness and readiness of organizations and their employees when they switch from on-site to remote work. Furthermore, this project aims to provide valuable insights that can help organizations and individuals take proactive steps to protect themselves and their employees from cybersecurity threats by identifying knowledge gaps, assessing employee behavior, evaluating security policies, identifying areas for improvement, and promoting best practices.<\/p>\n
