We are all guilty of checking up on our work emails or finishing that last piece of work at home after a busy day in the office (or in some cases, over a busy weekend!).
The UK have become a country of workaholics, with increased connectivity to their work outside of the office, which means in some cases checking work in the morning, evening, on public transport, in bed, in their cars and even on nights out!
But this dedication creates an increased risk to unauthorised people accessing the company data through unprotected devices.
It’s believed that one-in-ten employees would give colleagues access to their work device and even further, one-in-ten would give their partners access. Research carried out by OneLogin, stated that 35% of employees, would give their passwords to close friends and family.
Although employees remote accessing work is beneficial, it means that measure need to be in place to ensure remote workers are only accessing securely and not allowing others access.
Do you know who’s really accessing your company’s information? Make sure you have the correct policies and procedures in place.
