Business owners know that the productivity of a remote worker is higher than one doing similar work in the office. Companies around the world have been switching to the remote work format over the past several years, and even more against the backdrop of the coronavirus pandemic.
According to Owls Lab, more than 16% of American companies had switched to fully remote work by the end of last year. Another 40% chose the mixed option when the company's work is divided between the office and home.
Unfortunately, working in a new environment opens up unique opportunities not only for entrepreneurs but also for cybercriminals. Information ransom is the most common way for hackers to make money, blackmailing the business owners to pay for stolen and kept data. Therefore, be sure to provide cybersecurity for remote workers.
If you only need a password to log into the system used by your company, this is the best chance for hackers. MFA - multi-factor authentication, which supplements passwords with a one-time code or a bit of other information - will help to resist cyber-attacks. For example, the query "Are you a robot?" could be an easy additional step.
Security is improved by a unique set of passwords and logins, stored in an encrypted virtual safe.
In the case of office work, you can call an IT specialist who will come and service all computer equipment. No one will provide urgent assistance to employees who work remotely, even using their own devices. Therefore, the company manager should be sure to train the team to use cybersecurity products and services in order to act competently when hacking attempts occur, and to protect the company from phishing.
In the work process, managers practice video conferencing. This is an effective way of setting and monitoring tasks. But keep in mind that cybercriminals can take advantage of this format of communication.
In such circumstances, your IT department has to ensure business development cybersecurity and the smooth operation of corporate technologies outside the office. This means that your IT team members need to have a stable connection with every remote employee and be free of non-urgent and unnecessary tasks.
