Hi all,
I hope i'm posting in the correct area.
I am due to start working from home permanently. The company are installing their own PC for me, and will also be installing a network switch, hardwired Ethernet cable & a VOIP box.
My question is how much access does the company have to my network? I know that the 3rd party IT support company can access my work PC for updates etc, but can they access any other personal family pc's/laptops etc?
Not that they would, but my main worry is external access to my families individual online personal banking etc etc. Is there anything I need to do to or install to ensure total privacy on all family machines.
I am less than clued up on networking issues, and would greatly appreciate any help/advice you can offer in layman's terms.
Many thanks in advance.
