Working from home? Don't sacrifice privacy for security

Willow here.

Working from home is becoming the new normal.

But if your customers are sending employees home in BYOD mode, they may be opening themselves up for terrible outcomes.

Together we need to help them out!

What’s the potential vulnerability?

Employees’ personal desktops/laptops and mobile phones aren’t always protected according to each employer’s office standards.

Furthermore, the personal endpoints used at home are also vulnerable to risks coming from other family members’ devices, the home network and even IoT used at home.

What’s the risk?

Connecting external and unprotected devices to a company’s network could create a potential cross contamination, which could allow hackers to penetrate the company systems.

The security-privacy conflict

Employers would obviously like to protect their employees’ devices as much as they can.  But they also don’t want to impinge on their employees’ privacy with managed security products.

The solution

Check Point’s SandBlast software could provide the solution for your customers.
