Hopefully they've found a way to prevent people from downloading such files onto unsecured computers.
Virtualised desktops within the company on-prem cloud are a good way around this. You could still screen-grab from home, but actual file access can be locked down pretty well, as all content is only really manipulated on the virtual remote desktop.
