You’ve returned from vacation feeling refreshed and confident, but have you considered the cybersecurity of the office devices you rely on every day? There is often a false sense of security around everyday technology items, which can expose your business to significant risks. <\/h5>\n

Returning to work means resuming interaction with numerous devices that facilitate our daily activities but can also be entry points for cybersecurity threats. Below, we explore some of these devices and how you can protect your workspace and that of your collaborators.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

1. Connected printers<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>
\n

Printers can be hacked to access sensitive documents, spread malware or even infiltrate the network. Make sure your printer is always up to date, restrict access to authorized users, encrypt information transmitted between devices, and include all printers in your cybersecurity plan.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

2. IoT devices<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>
\n

From smart thermostats to security cameras, IoT devices can improve efficiency, but they also offer new avenues for cyberattacks. Change default passwords to strong and unique ones, they should be connected to a segmented network and keep the software up to date.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div><\/div>

3. Public Wifi<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>
\n

Using public WiFi in the office or in coffee shops during meetings may be convenient, but it is also vulnerable. Use VPNs to encrypt your connection and avoid accessing confidential information over public networks.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

4. Removable devices<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>
\n

USB drives and external disks are common for transferring data, but may contain malware or become targets for data theft. Implement device usage policies that include scanning all removable devices prior to connection.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div><\/div>

5. Personal devices<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>
\n

The use of personal devices for work tasks can increase the risk of security breaches. Establish clear policies, secure all devices with advanced security solutions and promote cybersecurity awareness among your employees.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The more we rely on technology in our offices, the more critical it becomes to protect every connected component. Security should not be an afterthought; it should be built into your company’s infrastructure from the start.<\/p>\n
