Deegaankan sida joogtada ah isu bedelaya, shaqo-bixiyeyaal aad u badan ayaa doorbida shaqaalahooda inay ka shaqeeyaan guriga^{(work from home)} . Waxaa jira taxaddarro ay tahay in ay qaadaan labadaba, loo shaqeeyaha iyo shaqaaluhu. Boostadani waxay ka hadlaysaa qaar ka mid ah talooyinka badbaadada iyo amniga si loo ilaaliyo xogta marka meel fog laga shaqaynayo.

^(Remote)Ka shaqaynta fog - Badbaadada^{(– Safety)} iyo talooyin ammaan

Waxaad u baahan tahay inaad hubiso in OS-kaaga iyo software-kaaga lagu rakibay mar walba la cusboonaysiiyo. Uninstall software aadan u baahnayn. Waxaa jira meelo kale oo aad u baahan tahay inaad eegto si aad u noqoto mid badbaado leh oo ammaan ah markaad meel fog ka shaqaynayso:

1. Isticmaal VPN
2. Bar shaqaalahaaga
3. Isticmaal software ammaan oo wanaagsan
4. Furaha adag
5. Isticmaal nooc ka mid ah sirta xogta
6. Isticmaal qalab shir fiidiyoow ah oo sugan.

1] Isticmaal VPN

Talada ugu horreysa ee amniga markaad ku xidhidhiyaha shirkadda intranetka guriga ama Wi-Fi kale waa inaad isticmaasho Shabakadda Gaarka ah ee Virtual (VPN)^{(Virtual Private Network (VPN))} . Intranet-ku waa shabakad gaar ah oo la abuuray iyadoo la isticmaalayo internetka^(Internet) .

Wi - Fi-ga^(Wi-Fi) guriga waxa laga yaaba in aanu 100% nabdoon ahayn maadaama dadku ay isticmaalaan furaha sirta ah ee caadiga ah ama kuwa daciifka ah ee routerkooda. Goobaha Wi-Fi-ga ee dadweynaha ee bilaashka ah waxay^{(Public free Wi-Fi hotspots)} sidoo kale u baahan yihiin taxadar badan sababtoo ah qof ayaa laga yaabaa inuu dhageysto taraafikadaada si uu u jabsado kombiyuutarkaaga. Software-ka VPN^{(VPN software)} ayaa lagula talinayaa meelaha Wi-Fi-ga^(Wi-Fi) ee dadweynaha sidoo kale. Dooro VPN wanaagsan ka dib markaad akhrido faallooyinka summada kala duwan oo aad waydiiso talooyin asxaabtaada iyo asxaabtaada.

Habka ugu fiican ee lagu dhamaystirayo VPN ee meelaha aan ammaan ahayn ee Wi-Fi-ga^(Wi-Fi) iyo guriga Wi-Fi waa jawaab celinta dadka IT-ga ee shirkaddaada. Shirkaddu waxay aadi kartaa qaar ka mid ah daabacaadda ganacsi ee VPN oo ay ku rakibto dhammaan kombiyuutarada shaqaalaha. Taasi waa inay ilaalisaa xogta loo shaqeeyaha.

2] Bar shaqaalahaaga

La xidhiidh^(Contact) dhammaan shaqaalahaaga oo baro waxa ku saabsan:

1. sida injineernimada bulshadu u shaqeyso ,
2. Dhammaan ku saabsan phishingka^{(all about phishing)} ,
3. sida tuugadu u weeraraan kombayutarada oo ay u galaan, iyo
4. sida loo badbaado oo loo ilaaliyo xogta loo shaqeeyaha marka lagu xidho internetka^(Internet)
5. iyo waxyaabaha la midka ah ee ka fogaanaya wax kasta oo wax u dhimi kara intarnetka loo shaqeeyaha

3] Firewall and Security software

Cusbooneysii^(Update) dhammaan software-ka ku raran kombayutarada shaqaalaha ama weydii shaqaalahaaga inay rakibaan noocii ugu dambeeyay. Software -ka^{(security software)} loo isticmaalo shaqada waa in had iyo jeer la cusboonaysiiyaa si aanu u waxyeelayn kombayutarka shaqaalaha oo uu u wasakheeyo xafiiska LAN ama Intranetka^(Intranet) . Liiska software-ka waxaa ku jira anti-virus iyo firewall. Haddii aad isticmaalayso VPN , hubi inuu yahay nuqulkii ugu dambeeyay.

4] Furaha adag

Hubi xoogga furaha sirta ah ee lagu isticmaalo shirkaddaada. Eeg sida ay u xoog badan yihiin furaha sirta ah ee shaqaalahaagu isticmaalayaan. Sii maamulaha erayga sirta ah sida Lastpass oo u sheeg sida loo sameeyo oo loo isticmaalo furaha sirta ah. Laakin ku darso kaliya website-yada iyo foomamka ay shaqaaluhu booqan karaan/ku isticmaali karaan qalabka shaqaalaha. Dadka kala duwan ee ka shaqeeya heerar kala duwan waxay u baahan yihiin inay helaan noocyo kala duwan oo shabakado ah. Tusaale ahaan, kombuyuutarka shaqada ayaa dhif ah lahaan doona Facebook ama Twitter ilaa ay ka mid yihiin hababka ganacsiga ee la xidhiidha astaanta shaqaalaha.

5] Isticmaal nooc ka mid ah sirta xogta

Sireeynta xogta^(Data) ayaa ilaalin doonta xogtaada xitaa haddii mid ka mid ah kombayutaradaada la dhibaateeyay. Hubi^(Make) in furaha sirtu meel aamin ku yahay. Way fiicantahay in la sifeeyo diskka oo dhan isla markiiba. Fiiri qaar ka mid ah software-ka sirta ah ee wanaagsan^{(good encryption software)} ee aan ku daboolnay Naadiga Windows^{(Windows Club)} .

6] Isticmaal^(Use) qalab shir fiidiyoow ah oo sugan

Fursada ayaa ah in aad isticmaali doonto qalabka shirarka fiidyaha^{(video conferencing tool)} . Waxaad u baahan tahay mid wanaagsan oo ammaan ah oo cadaw u ah sababahaas, waxaad isticmaali kartaa Kooxaha Microsoft^{(Microsoft Teams)} ama Kulanka Skype^{(Skype Meet)} . Soo- dhoweyntu^(Zoom) waa caan oo haddii aad rabto inaad isticmaasho, waxaad u baahan tahay inaad sameyso taxaddar amni^{(some security precautions)} .

Tilmaamaha amniga^(Security) ee shaqaalaha marka ay meel fog ka shaqaynayaan

1. Hubi^(Make) in kombayutarka shirkadaagu leeyahay VPN wanaagsan . Had^(Always) iyo jeer daara VPN^(VPN) -ka marka aad isticmaalayso internetka^(Internet) .
2. Ka fogow inaad^(Avoid) isku mar qabato shaqo shirkadeed iyo mid gaar ahaaneed ama hawlo badan. U guurista inta u dhaxaysa shaqada shirkadda iyo shaqada gaarka ah waxay daadin kartaa waxa ku jira browserkaaga. Waxay kaloo keeni kartaa Tabnabbing . Ka digtoonow khataraha ku jira samaynta shaqada shakhsi ahaaneed ee intranetka shirkadda.
3. Had iyo jeer ku xafid saxanka mid sir ah oo fur oo kaliya faylasha aad u isticmaalayso shaqada xafiiska. Tani waxay sidoo kale ka dhigan tahay in shirkadu ay isticmaasho software sirta faylka^{(file encryption software)} oo dhan software sirta diskka si xogta loo ilaaliyo. Dhibka haysta dhammaan software-ka sirta diskka ayaa ah in ay hal mar furaan diskka oo dhan.
4. U adeegso^(Use) oo kaliya adeegyada ay bixiso shirkadu kombayutarka shaqada: iimaylka, fariimaha degdega ah, software-ka shirarka, iyo daalacashada
5. Ha u isticmaalin Proxies si aad u gasho boggaga laga mamnuucay kombiyuutarkaaga shaqada. Tani waxay u ekaan kartaa badbaado badan, laakiin wakiilku waxa laga yaabaa inuu sameeyo qoraallo waxa aad ka samaynayso internetka^(Internet) iyo haddii kale.

Miyaynu^(Did) ku dhaafnay wax nabdoon badbaado iyo badbaado shaqo fog oo ku jira qoraalkan? Nala wadaag, talooyinkaaga iyo khibradahaaga qaybta faallooyinka ee hoose.

Remote working - Safety and security tips to protect data

In thіs continυoυsly changing еnvironment, more and more employers prеfer their employeеs to work from home. There are some precautions to be taken by both, the employers and employees. This post talks about some safety and security tips to protect data when working remotely.

Remote working – Safety and security tips

You need to make sure that your OS and installed software is always updated. Uninstall software you do not need. There are some other areas you need to take a look at to be safe and secure when working remotely:

1. Use a VPN
2. Educate your employees
3. Use a good Security software
4. Strong Passwords
5. Use some form of data encryption
6. Use a secure video conferencing tool.

1] Use a VPN

The first security tip when connecting to the company intranet over the home or some other Wi-Fi is to use a Virtual Private Network (VPN). An intranet is a private network created using the Internet.

The Wi-Fi at home may not be 100 percent safe as people tend to use default or weak passwords in their routers. Public free Wi-Fi hotspots also need plenty of precautions because someone might be listening to your traffic to hack into your computer. VPN software is recommended for public Wi-Fi hotspots too. Pick a good VPN after reading different brand reviews and asking suggestions from your teammates and friends.

The best method in finalizing the VPN for insecure Wi-Fi hotspots and home Wi-Fi is the feedback from the IT people of your company. The company can go for some paid VPN’s enterprise edition and install it on all employees’ computers. That should protect the employers’ data.

2] Educate your employees

Contact all your employees and educate them concerning:

1. how social engineering works,
2. all about phishing,
3. how hackers attack computers and access them, and
4. how to stay safe and keep the employers’ data safer when connected to the Internet
5. and similar things that would avoid anything that may compromise the employers’ intranet

3] Firewall and Security software

Update all software loaded on employees’ computers or ask your employees to install the latest version. The security software used for work should be always updated so that it doesn’t compromise any employees’ computer and thereby contaminate the office LAN or Intranet. The software list includes anti-virus and firewall. If using a VPN, make sure it is the latest version.

4]  Strong Passwords

Check the strength of passwords in use in your company. See how strong passwords your employees are using. Provide them with a good password manager like Lastpass and tell them how to create and use strong passwords. But add only the websites and forms the employees can visit/use on the employee device. Different people working at different levels need access to different types of websites. For example, a work computer would seldom have Facebook or Twitter unless they are part of the business processes related to the employee’s profile.

5] Use some form of data encryption

Data encryption will protect your data even if one of your computers is compromised. Make sure the encryption key is secure somewhere. It is a better practice to encrypt the entire disk at a go. Check out some good encryption software that we covered at The Windows Club.

6] Use a secure video conferencing tool

The chance are that you will be making use of a video conferencing tool. You ned a good secure one and foe those reasons, you could use Microsoft Teams or Skype Meet. Zoom is popular and if you wish to use it, you need to take some security precautions.

Security tips for employees when working remotely

1. Make sure your company computer has a good VPN. Always keep the VPN turned on while using the Internet.
2. Avoid doing corporate and personal work at the same time or by multi-tasking. Moving between company work and personal work may leak the contents of your browser. It may also lead to Tabnabbing. Be aware of the risks of doing personal work on the corporate intranet.
3. Always keep the disk encrypted and decrypt only those files that you are using for office work. This also means that the company should use file encryption software over entire disk encryption software so that the data is protected. The problem with entire disk encryption software is that they decrypt the whole disk at a time.
4. Use only company provided services on the work computer: email, instant messaging, conferencing software, and browsers.
5. Do NOT use Proxies to access sites that have been disallowed on your work computer. This may sound safer, but the proxy may be making notes of what you are doing on the Internet and otherwise.
