Do you find yourself traveling for your business? Be it for a conference, a series of meetings that require your attendance, or some other reason, you may very likely need to spend some time on the road; time that could be spent on tasks your business needs to function. Despite the lack of a traditional workspace, this time spent traveling doesn’t necessarily need to be time wasted. Thanks to the technology of today, you have the ability to remain productive while mobile.
However, you should still be mindful of your security. Cyber threats are present everywhere, and travelers unaware of security best practices can provide a tantalizing road of sitting ducks for attackers to strike. Of particular importance to a traveling business owner is the utilization of a Virtual Private Network (VPN), which allows you to access the company network on public Wi-Fi. It is important that you adhere to following these often ignored best practices, especially while carrying a pathway to the data critical of your business dealings.
Before departing for your trip:
While you’re travelling or present at your destination:
On a different line of thought, keep it to yourself and never leave your devices (storage solutions included) unsecured or unattended. If leaving your devices in your hotel room, keep them well-secured, just in case.
Just because you are travelling doesn’t mean you can’t be productive while maintaining a reasonable level of data security. With the proper safeguards in place and the application of a few best practices, you can make sure time is not wasted when there is work to be done.
