Part A: Risk Addendum
Description of Risks Impact Likelihood of Occurrence (L, M, H) Degree of Impact
(L, M, H) Initial Action to Take if Event Occurs Team Member Responsible Strategies for Prevention and Migration
Lack of back-up of home computers resulting in loss of data and rework Loss of data and rework. This affects project and operational deadlines and affects policy on data retention. M H If teleworker is remote logged into a server, the data should already be backed up. However, if this is on the telework computer, there can be no recovery of lost information. Instead, the employee will need to be retrained on local storage and mapped storage. Phoebe Run a daily reverse incremental backup of the teleworkers’ systems. This includes …show more content…
L H Work with telecommuters to find their internet connectivity speed. Assist in verifying best practices in finding out how many devices should be running at the same time during telework. Elizabeth Set policy on minimum speeds necessary to perform telework. Review policy on reimbursing teleworkers for upgrading their home internet connection.
Hackers could gain access to corporate information by sniffing communications Theft of critical personal information. Users may also experience system degradation due to hacker interference. Hackers are also capable of inserting malware and/or viruses into the infrastructure, which can impact one user and even the entire network. L H The user will contact technical support. Once the offending system is scanned, and suspicious activity is detected, the system will be quarantined for further scan and remediation. Support staff will also investigate the source of the intrusion via system …show more content…
M H If monitoring software catches this type of intrusion, the system administration team will examine teleworker system logs to validate space allocated as well as log-on attempts. Phoebe, Ben, Zeke System Administration team will need to set watermarks to 75% for alerts of this type. Once the storage for the telework users is reached, the team should receive an alert and begin to investigate the cause. Another way to handle this is to allocate a set amount of space to each user, rather than giving them access to storage as a whole.
Telecommuters’ lack of full computer functionality to complete the required tasks for translation services offered by Xemba Translations Teleworker tasks can take longer to complete, creating bottlenecks in project and operational work. L H Monitor user systems for any necessary upgrades to prevent slowdowns. Utilize monitoring software to examine user systems for slowdowns in processor and memory. Elizabeth Continually monitor systems for resource issues and slowdowns. Analyze this data and if necessary, be prepared to replace systems with newer
