3 Essential Business Network Security Measures For Remote Working
As of September 2020, an estimated 18 percent of the workforce is now working remotely full-time, according to Review42. In addition to that, more than half of all businesses offer telecommuting in some capacity. The digital space is likely where much of our business will be conducted from here on out. Hence, keeping your company’s network security is a must. Here are the top 3 essentials to keep your business network safe and secure.
Encryption is your main means of protecting against data compromisation. For those who don’t know, encryption is encoding data into a cipher. Anyone who wants to access the data will need to decrypt it with the proper clearances. Encryption is the first thing keeping your data confidential in case it falls into the wrong hands. You can encrypt your data in two ways with End-to-End Encryption and Advanced Encryption Standard.
End-to-end Encryption secures data on both the sender and receiver side with strong encryption that protects well against hacking. Advanced Encryption Standard, on the other hand, uses a randomly generated key to unlock each package of data received. End-to-end encryption is enough for emails and regular online communication. AES was purpose-built for sending more important data, such as compressed folders full of confidential plans and schematics.
