Business Data Security And Remote Working

Final security.

Installing an endpoint agent with the ability to carry out malware data and protection will provide a greater guarantee to secure the endpoint especially if the company's data is on employee devices.


Save a powerful password | Use a password manager

Password protection is another easy way to protect your organization's data. Some people tend to underestimate the importance of password access, using the same password from the device to account to account. Educating remote workers about password protection is very important to secure sensitive data. Start with the basics of how to maintain a password and why it is very important not to use the same repetitive.


Another way for organizations and employees to alleviate this risk is to use a password manager that will allow users to generate passwords randomly and save them safely. In this way, employees can focus on their daily tasks without the need to remember all their passwords for different accounts. Also, the data will remain safe and uncompromising.


Plan authentication and authorization

Acting as if a violation cannot be avoided to further improve the security of your company. Multi-factor authentication (MFA), monitor access control, and create a powerful password is an important hack that must be known every smart company now.


Many organizations move to two-factor authentication (2fa) for their data security management. This method confirms the identity of the user by first require a username and password, and other information, whether it's the answer to a "secret question" or maybe a PIN sent to the user's cellphone.


Having the right authorization rate is very important. Especially for remote workers, only have access to the application and the features needed are the best way to go. Companies must develop the habit of providing access rights 'at least'. This means only giving the minimum permission needed by the end-user.

Be careful of phishing threats

Phishing threats targeting remote workers are increasing. The usual phishing strategy includes making employees engage with suspicious content through what appears to be an important notification. Phishing threats often include clear errors such as poor grammar and spelling. Remote workers who are trained and conscious will be able to find these signals.


Consider running a simulated phishing campaign to test the awareness of your employees to send potentially dangerous emails, from who opens or clicks the shade link with those who enter credentials or send suspicious forms.



Therefore, it is important to develop a remote work culture that takes the best security practices as a top priority. When it comes to cybersecurity, the organization must plan all possibilities and not leave a coincidence. Remote workers must be trained to avoid and report suspicious activities.
