Keep your network locked down
The network you use for remote work is the first line of defense against cybersecurity threats. To protect it, ensure that your Wi-Fi network is secured with a strong password and that you're using the latest security protocols, such as WPA3. Regularly update your router firmware and avoid using public Wi-Fi networks to connect to your work accounts.
When you’re working in an area with public Wi-Fi, connect only to secure networks that require a password or another form of authentication. Even after you take this precaution, don’t access sensitive information from a public Wi-Fi network, and be sure to log out — and tell your computer to forget the network — when you’re done.
