While most of us have laptops and home Internet, there are certainly always concerns about maintaining general security and manageability. But for those corporate employees and executives with families quarantined at home, they face unique challenges around bandwidth demand, and for executives, indeed, the security of sensitive information is paramount. Many of our customers are dealing with these same situations and have asked us how they can use their fully managed LTE connectivity solutions to support remote workers. Here are our Top 3 Tips To Securely Connect Executives and Remote Workers:
- Consider enabling your remote executives and workers on a completely separate LTE network. Deployed, managed, and secured following your accessibility policies, move your teams off vulnerable and frustrating home networks with an enterprise-class solution.
- To simplify security, consider putting all traffic on a VPN from the router to your company’s data center and funneling that traffic through security services in the data center. By providing the necessary connectivity while at the same time maintaining consistency with existing in-office policies, this is especially important if using the remote device doesn’t support threat protection or content filtering on the router.
- Build a Wi-Fi policy that can limit which MAC addresses can connect to a given SSID. Such a plan can be used to restrict access to the LTE router to only corporate assets such as company laptops or phones.
Nobody knows how long this “new normal” will last, but if you are looking for a secure LTE network connectivity for remote workers, you can find outstanding options here at LTEConnectivity.com. From our homes to yours, stay home, stay connected, and stay secure.
