applications on premise or
in the cloud
2. Security Policies
3. Remote Access and
Support

8. Identity Management and Security
• Identity Management is what
we call the “source of truth” -
this tells us:

access to which files
• What applications they
can access

departments, etc. they can
communicate with
Identity Management Security
• Identity Protection w/Passwords
• Rights Management
• Data Loss Prevention

many people working remotely
creates potential vulnerabilities in
your network/systems.

identities are secure and your
people and their devices are
managed.

10. So where do I go?
Step 2: Review your current remote access setup.
Step 1: Get all remote hardware you and your organization will need
to perform remote work
Step 3: Make sure all policies and applications are
accessible to your team and data can be accessed by
your WFH/Remote Workforce.
Step 4: Get a HUB for Collaboration and tools in place
so meetings, calls, documents storage, document
authoring, file sharing, etc. can be done easily.
Step 5: Get Mobile Devices (Laptops, Desktops, Smart
Phones, Tablets, etc.) in a place that they are secure
and data/policies can be pushed and pulled from your
remote workforce.
