When Working Remotely
Be sure to follow these guidelines when you work remotely:
Review the PSU Remote Work Guidelines, including Section O under General Provisions, which addresses security and confidentiality of PSU data.
Remember that you are responsible for maintaining the security and confidentiality of PSU data while working remotely.
Take care to ensure that mobile devices such as laptops are not at risk of being stolen (for example, visible in a parked car, or left in a public space).
Ensure full-disk encryption is enabled on your devices and use a strong PIN.
Whenever possible, use a PSU OIT-managed device to access confidential and restricted PSU data. Refer to PSU’s Information Security Policy (PDF) to review data classification definitions.
When Using a Personal Computer to Conduct PSU Business
If you’re using a personal computer or other device for PSU business, follow these additional guidelines:
Regularly install any available updates to your computer or device’s operating system, and install all available application updates and patches.
Install antivirus software on your personal computer and run a full scan. Visit Install antivirus software for more information.
Use a dedicated (not shared) user account on your personal computer for University business.
Don’t download confidential or restricted data.
Be sure that work-related materials are not accessible to others. For example, log out of all PSU systems when not in use, and/or set a device password.
Use Remote Desktop or Employee Virtual Desktop to work with confidential or restricted data.
