Understanding where all IT assets are and identifying those assets that need to be returned for wiping, recycling or updating.

Managing insecure home network connections

Working from home presents three unique challenges

1.

Staff are working on unsecured personal WiFi networks.

2.

Updates to home router firewalls and passwords are often overlooked, leading to vulnerabilities and increased risk of a data breach.

3.

Remote software will only monitor laptops that are in use. Redundant or rarely used devices can go undetected but still have confidential company data stored locally

Threats to businesses

Poorly manage/maintained end devices

Unmanaged laptops being used for work

Personal sensitive and work information being stored on multiple devices at home.

Risk of unauthorised access / use of redundant IT equipment

Risk of theft from home worker premises (shared accommodation)

Risk of data breaches leading to significant GDPR fines

Tasks that need to be done to protect data

Identify all redundant IT equipment at home (asset amnesty)
Identify which equipment needs to be returned
Identify which equipment needs system wipe/update
Identify all defective equipment for destruction / disposal
Identify the physical location of damaged smart phones
