Security/Risk Management COVID–19
KAMIND IT is committed to securing our client’s organizations more than ever during this global pandemic. Cybersecurity is always a priority. When teleworking or working remotely, additional cybersecurity strategies must be considered.
Teleworking spaces can include your home, or a public or shared space. Be sure to follow the same processes and procedures as if you were in your typical physical work location. These include:
- Keep your workspace clean. Do not leave documents unattended or in view of unauthorized people. This includes family members, roommates, friends, other coffee shop or library patrons, etc.
- Keep devices locked when unattended. Set your computers and phones to lock when not in use for more than a few minutes. If your locked screen previews new messages or emails, contact your organization’s IT help desk to learn how you can hide them.
- When participating in phone conversations or digital meetings, make sure confidential conversations cannot be heard.
- Keep your work and personal business separate. Become familiar with your organization’s acceptable use policy to ensure you are not violating laws or policies by conducting personal business on a work device.
- Do not download sensitive or confidential work documents to your home computer.
- At the end of the workday, log off all work devices and remote work platforms.
