What Your Hybrid Workers Need to Know About IT Security
The hybrid work environment is here to stay. Work done away from your central office means data security is even more important.
Your Data Is Out There!
Here are a few good data security rules for your hybrid work staff:
- Never log onto a free Wi-Fi network while working with confidential data.
- Never let anyone else use your corporate device. A child or spouse downloading malicious software to a corporate device can result in a ransomware attack or data breach.
- Never treat a corporate device casually. Whether it’s a flash drive or a mobile phone, each can provide a way for criminals to access the network core.
- Never fail to report something that you feel might be a risk.
Data security is a big concern when you’re away from the office. Stay safe and secure out there!
