Starting in 2025, innovation will accelerate with the opening of the AWS region in Mexico, breaking historical paradigms in technology and digital transformation, since, in a country known for its strict regulations in the financial sector – where banks, insurers and fintechs must guarantee the residency of productive data – this new region eliminates barriers that previously limited digital transformation.

Now, however, the transformation will have no limits.

Teleworking is a flexible form of work organization that consists of the performance of professional activity without the physical presence of the worker in the company during a significant part of their working hours. This modality forces companies to contemplate various scenarios, such as the manipulation of work information on devices that may not be adequately protected or remote access to sensitive information. These cases, among many others, cause organizations to consider different ways of managing security to minimize the risks associated with an information attack.

Security points to consider when teleworking.

• VULNERABILITIES

Weak passwords

– Absence of security solutions

-Connection from insecure networks Devices with unencrypted information

-Lack of backups of the information

-Lack of updating of systems and devices

Threats

– Loss of devices
– Infection with malicious code
– Execution of exploits
– Equipment damage
– Deception based on social engineering

The company must have security controls and policies that classify what type of information is accessible and which should have a higher level of protection to avoid security incidents such as information leakage.

Determine what the risks are, the level of probability of occurrence and the level of impact.

Risks.

• Access to sensitive information from untrusted environments
  • User permissions in the system
  • Corporate equipment for personal use
  • Information backup
  • Weak authentication systems
  • Lack of security policies

Safety Pillars.

MANAGE ROLES

The company must ensure that access to information is allowed only for those roles that are actually enabled to do so.

DEVICE CONTROL

Considering the wide variety of devices on the market, it is important to restrict access to only those on which the appropriate security tools are applied.

PROTECT AGAINST MALICIOUS CODE

To ensure that no malicious code affects data, all devices used by the employee must have security solutions that proactively detect these types of threats

MONITOR NETWORK TRAFFIC

Since there are devices that are entering the network outside the physical perimeter of the office, it is necessary to keep track of what type of traffic they generate.

SECURE CONNECTIONS

Implementation of client-based VPN connections, since this type of network allows a user to be connected to a remote network, through an application that is responsible for establishing communication and lifting the VPN. To access the secure connection, the user must run the app and authenticate with a username and password, and even adding a second factor of authentication. In this way, the encrypted channel between the computer and the remote network is created, for a secure exchange of data.

WRITE A SECURITY POLICY

The security policy must declare the intentions regarding the security of computer resources, and from it lay the foundations to determine the obligations and responsibilities of users with respect to the use of the technologies available to them.

RAISE EMPLOYEE AWARENESS

All users should be aware of the risks to which they may be exposed and what precautions they should take when bringing in devices outside the company. If the user does not know the risks to which the company’s information, and even their own, is exposed, they can more easily fall victim to many threats.
