Overview: Enterprises are increasingly "Net-centric"-organised around networks rather than buildings. Technology and business practices continue to erode the importance of location, making remote working an increasingly feasible and familiar concept. The business drivers behind this trend include better technology, globalisation and cost pressures. The SARS outbreak in Asia is the latest disruption to reinforce interest in business continuity planning, another driver of remote working. Some executives still see significant barriers to remote working. But increasingly, these obstacles are not technological in nature-the tools that enable successful remote working are available now. Indeed, companies that cannot meet the supervisory and security challenges posed by remote working ought to be worried-remote working is just one facet of a larger strategic trend towards ubiquitous network access.
