As some university employees continue to work remote or hybrid schedules, please keep the following ITS Remote Work Guidelines in mind when working remotely:
- Personally owned devices used for university business should not be shared with others.
- Operating systems and applications must be up to date.
- All security patches must be up to date and installed.
- Anti-virus software should be installed and up to date.
- Endpoints should have Fireeye Endpoint Agent and Splunk Universal Forward installed.
- Endpoints used by employees for processing, storage, and transmission of any WSU data require full disk encryption.
- VPN should be used when processing, storing, or transmitting university regulated or confidential data.
- SSL/TLS enabled applications should be used when processing, storing, or transmitting data from a remote site to WSU.
- Endpoints should have WSU data backed up to a storage location owned and maintained by a WSU IT department to ensure ongoing access and protection against loss of critical WSU data.
- Endpoints that do not require wireless usage should have wireless capability disabled prior to deployment.
- Endpoints should be registered & joined to a WSU area, college, or departmental domain.
- Host-based firewalls should be enabled and appropriately configured.
