Is your data safe in a remote working environment? This is the question that most of us are probably not sure about. In this article, we tackle how you can ensure the safety of your data even in a remote working environment.
With the new normal pushing businesses to implement remote work arrangements, it’s more important today than ever to start thinking about securing your data even while working remotely.
Wi-Fi Threats
In a remote working environment, having a stable internet connection is important, but here in our country, a stable internet connection is rare, according to a report by Data Reportal, median download speeds of mobile data and fixed internet connections are 22.04 mbps and 81.42 mbps respectively. It sounds fast but in reality, in the speedtest global index we are ranked 89 in the world for Mobile internet speeds and ranked 92 in the world for fixed internet speeds. With that reason, sometimes, people will be forced to find other wi-fi connections even though it’s risky.
If you happen to stumble upon a public wi-fi connection (note that this is not advisable especially when handling sensitive company information) here are some things that you can do to minimize the risks when connecting to a public network:
Secure Your Devices
The technology in our world today has produced a number of cutting edge devices, some of these are your work laptops, mobile phones, tablets and many more! These are tools that are essential in a remote working environment, we ask the same question, is your data safe in a remote working environment?
Here are some things you can do to secure your devices and protect sensitive company data:
Train Your Employees
Having knowledgeable and trained employees regarding data privacy and protection is not optional anymore, appointing a Data Protection Officer is mandated by the Designation of Data Protection Officers. In our time of age and with the new normal pushing rapid digitization in the Philippines, data protection is more important than ever!
Now ask yourself the question, is your data safe in a remote working environment? Ensure your data privacy protection by having your employees attend training, webinars, and other valuable learning materials.
