Managing security for a distributed team is challenging. Use this checklist to ensure your remote workforce is protected.

Network Security

  • Deploy a business VPN with dedicated servers for all team members
  • Require VPN connection for accessing company resources
  • Implement split tunneling to balance security and performance
  • Set up static IP whitelisting for critical systems

Access Control

  • Enable SSO (Single Sign-On) across all business applications
  • Require multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all accounts
  • Implement role-based access control (RBAC)
  • Review and revoke access for departing employees immediately

Device Security

  • Require full-disk encryption on all work devices
  • Deploy endpoint detection and response (EDR) software
  • Keep all operating systems and applications updated
  • Enforce strong password policies with a password manager

Communication

  • Use end-to-end encrypted messaging for sensitive discussions
  • Avoid discussing confidential information on public channels
  • Train team members to recognize phishing attempts

VPN Fleet's Business and Enterprise plans include team management, SSO integration, and dedicated account managers to help implement these practices.
