I've been working in the IT industry way too long. Any devices provided by my employer will only have whatever the employer has preloaded in terms of software. I will not browse any private or personal things on that device. I'm under constant assumption that device is keylogged/monitored. Even when working from home, I have it connect to it's own private network on it's own VLAN.
If I do go into the office, I'll just use my cell-phone for personal browsing.
- bryguy32403 5y agoI have that same mindset, but at the last two companies I've been at, I was a bit disturbed that the software policy was basically, "If you need it, just go to the website and download it. Don't download a virus, good luck!"
- zebraflask 5y agoExactly. It's the employer's property, and aren't there such things as devices you own? Why blur the lines on something like that? This reads more like an overreaction to a lapse of judgment more than anything else.
