Many companies have introduced the Home Office. This enables employees to work outside of the office and access the network remotely. However, this entails risks that can be minimised not only by technical measures but also by responsible user behaviour. It is important to follow security rules at home or on the road to make the mobile workplace more secure.
In addition to the document “Home-Office: Securing Remote Access” we would like to provide you corresponding information for the end user on how to secure his own environment and therefore help to reduce the risk for the employer.
- Access to company ressources whenever possible applying a 2 factor authentication
- Always save data outside of the company environment in encrypted form
- Be sceptical whenever you are unexpectedly requested to open a link or an attachment
- Report suspicious emails or links to your helpdesk, especially, if you have already opened such a document or if you have already clicked on such a link.
