Running your business in the office isn’t easy, but running your business from home could have a whole new set of challenges. We are going to outline a few things that can help stay connected, and secure, even when you’re not in the office!

There are a few different ways of connecting to your office remotely. One way is through a VPN or Virtual Private Network. This is the most common way, and requires equipment or software such as a firewall in the office to connect to remotely. Adaptive IT can setup these firewalls, with security, and VPN access, so you can connect to your office worry-free.

Another way of working remotely, is through software like Splashtop. Splashtop gets installed on your computer, and can be accessed from anywhere in the world. It creates a secure 256-bit AES encrypted connection to your computer remotely, and is HIPPA, PCI, and SOC 2 compliant. Adaptive IT can setup all your workstations with remote monitoring, and secure connections. Rest assured, you can keep your business running from anywhere in the world.

The last option, is to have most of your infrastructure in the cloud. Adaptive IT can help you migrate file servers, software, or even workstations to the cloud in a “Virtual” environment that can be accessed anywhere in the world.

Especially when working remotely, always have secure passwords and multi-factor authentication. We can help you setup 2FA, and password managers that integrate with almost any software.

Additionally, when using VPN connections you should always disconnect from VPN’s when you are not using it.
