The index assesses various factors affecting remote work quality, including cyber safety, economic conditions, digital and physical infrastructure, and social safety. Among the African countries included in the index, Morocco ranked 48th globally, bolstered by its tourism appeal and strong cyber safety measures. Tunisia followed at 53rd place, supported by its tourism attractiveness. Mauritius secured the 58th spot due to its excellent infrastructure and tourism appeal.&nbsp;While several African countries rank lower due to underdeveloped digital and physical infrastructures, many are recognized for their tourism attractiveness. The GRWI evaluates countries based on four dimensions: Cyber Safety (considering cyberinfrastructure, response capacity, and legal measures),&nbsp;Economic Safety (evaluating factors like tourism attractiveness, language proficiency, cost of living, and healthcare services), Digital and Physical Infrastructure (assessing internet quality, affordability, e-infrastructure, e-government, and physical infrastructure), and Social Safety (measuring personal rights, inclusiveness, and overall safety in the country).&nbsp;The top ten global countries for remote work in 2023, according to GRWI, include Denmark, The Netherlands, Germany, Spain, Sweden, Portugal, Estonia, Lithuania, Ireland, and Slovakia. These countries are all located in Europe, possibly indicating the impact of the EU on remote work trends.&nbsp;NordLayer's Managing Director, Donatas Tamelis, highlighted the importance of cybersecurity practices in the age of remote work. He advised using a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to encrypt internet connections, ensuring devices have the latest updates for security patches, avoiding sensitive activities on public Wi-Fi networks unless using a VPN, enabling two-factor authentication, and using strong and unique passwords for online accounts. Tamelis emphasized that cybersecurity vigilance is essential to safeguard data and protect organizations from evolving cyber threats in the remote work era.
