Last month we released our first ever “Businesses @ Work” Report, which shares findings from our network of 4,000 applications, thousands of custom integrations and millions of daily authentications and verifications around the world. Our dataset identifies several fascinating industry trends for those making or considering significant investment in cloud and mobile. As head of Okta’s UK operations, I was interested in the tendencies on our side of the pond. Are us Brits bucking the trend in any sense when it comes to how we work? Well I found the answer is, yes we do – but not necessarily in a good way. The biggest point that gave me cause for alarm is that UK businesses won’t let go of the security question as a form of verification. While the global trend is for companies to move away from questions about birthplaces and bloodlines as verification methods –.
