HERE ARE SOME SIMPLE QUESTIONS TO CONSIDER WHEN ASSESSING YOUR HOMEWORKING CYBER RISK:


• Have your employees been trained to spot and manage phishing emails?


• Review your password policy. • Has multi factor authentication (MFA) been enabled on email accounts or VPN?


• Are home routers and WIFI secure and default passwords changed?


• Is your VPN & RDP secure, updated, and patched? Do employees switch off the VPN out of hours?


• Are your employees using teleconferencing tools such as zoom or webex. Does the tool allow end-to-end encryption? Is it turned on? Patched?


• Are employees using a Personal Device rather than a business owned computer? What is the security on that device?


• Backup, backup and backup. • Consider cyber insurance.
