| With more and more employees working remotely, leaders need to set clear guidelines around how to communicate sensitive company information. Remind employees to use even more care than they would if they were in the office. Make clear that personal email should not be used for any company business, and that employees need to keep track of what they are printing at home. If a printed document would be subject to shredding in the office, take care to do the same from home — or refrain from printing it in the first place. And of course, ask your employees to use company-issued devices when working; using personal devices creates problems around document preservation and increases risk. Finally, be sure you have up-to-date emergency contacts for all employees — a cell phone number or another way to contact them outside of company systems. This way, should your company fall victim to a cyber-attack, you’ll be able to communicate with everyone. Taking these steps will help ensure your team’s security while it adjusts to the virtual work environment. |
