AwareGO | Insider Risk: Don't Leave Your Computer Unattended
The insider risk is real when working from home. if we leave our computers unattended anywhere they pose a risk. Feel free to share it to anyone who might benefit from increased awareness about insider risk while working from home.
We’d like to think of our homes as a safe place, but for our work computers, it may not be. Insider risk usually refers to employees within the workplace. Another type of accidental or negligent insider risk is when employees fail to safeguard sensitive information or their work equipment while their friends, relatives or even pets are around. This type of insider risk is greater when employees are working with confidential documents from home.
Negligent insiders or accidental insiders account for over 60% of insider incidents. When it comes to accidental/negligent insider risk, cybersecurity training can truly help. We recommend using short security training videos and awareness messages to teach about the risks of being unaware and negligent with confidential information, passwords, access passes and downloads.
