What does 2021 have in store concerning networking trends? Find out here.
The last several years have seen advances in commercial IT that are likely to accelerate in 2021. The events of 2020, although unusual, to say the least, have indeed promoted technology to continue in its current direction. The networking trends of 2021 will be all about continuing to improve connectivity and security.
Remote Work Security
In recent years, the option of working from home has been the norm for over half the world. Today’s technology allows many employees to cut the commute and work remotely through the business network. With so many employees in so many different locations besides the main office, it can be much easier for a hacker to break in. Smart businesses are actively implementing the best technologies, such as Endpoint Security and Zero Trust Security, to make all points strong.
Working in the Cloud
The Cloud has proved more than useful in 2020, helping businesses save space and money in storing their data and helping workers connect seamlessly. Companies do not need extra hardware or software to use it; they only need a cloud account to access countless IT services. One can manage their own account, or have a third party, like Axus Technologies, service it for you.
The Rise of Wi-Fi 6
Wi-Fi continues to develop as the years pass. The latest version is Wi-Fi 6, which provides broader bandwidth for better speed and network reliability. As businesses grow, traffic increases. Wi-Fi 6 casts aside the problems of slow Internet, poor video connectivity, and lengthy uploading and downloading of data.
The Rise of 5G
Similarly, 5G is also emerging and is already a major force in growing global business. 5G is the latest standard for global wireless technology. This wireless technology is similar to Wi-Fi 6, but typically works on a far larger scale than Wi-Fi does. For instance, one might use Wi-Fi in an office building, store, restaurant, or other indoor setting, but you will likely use 5G for an outdoor network, such as at a park or at a restaurant. Mainly, you’ll see large-scale businesses using 5G to manage equipment, data, etc.
