Remote Access Policies

Posted by samzenpus on from the write-it-down-from-home dept.

Samalie writes "My company is considering implementing a formal remote access policy (and agreement for staff to sign) for users who access our network from home via VPN. Does anyone out there have any suggestions as to what this policy/agreement should contain? Anyone have their own corporate policy that I can borrow from? This is the first time I've come across anyone wanting a formal policy for this & online searches haven't been very helpful."

  2. Use Laptops by George+Beech · · Score: 5, Informative

    We require all users with remote access to use corporate laptops that are locked down. You cannot connect your personal computer via vpn. Also there is the standard "treat it as if you were sitting at your desk, all rules regulations etc. still apply."
