How security-conscious is your office or workplace?

Well, yugatech.com isnt blocked by websense in NCO.Ü

haha sa sykes nga surrender mo yung cellphone mo sa baggage pag applicant palang. u know the feeling na iiwan mo like, yung iphone 4 mo sa guards, and with no assurance kung maiingatan ba nila. hindi pa sure na mattanggap ka, may possible loss na agad. at pati barya sa bulsa papakita mo, anything na madetect ng metal sensors nila.

security wise ok siya, pero sa mga di pa sanay, lil annoying at intimidating ang dating.

Sa amin, mismong mga PC cases at LAN connections may padlock! And to think mga PC na gamit namin e Pentium 4 lang!

Become close friends with the security administrator… LOL :-p

sa amin, tatambakan ka ng napakaraming passwords! lahat ng accounts may passwords at iba iba.

Sa amin sa ibang BPO, di naman mahigpit pede nga na magnet ka wag lang sa mga social networking sites basta maabot mo lang ang quota sa isang araw. Sa mga Japanese IT companies ang mahihigpit according sa mga kakilala ko ultimo pag-cr mo di kasama sa 8-hrs/day :D IT trainee ka dapat need mo ng resources sa mga net kaso bawal din sa kanina.

Sa office namen, internet connection has it’s own proxy server. And it traces every website that you visit. So kahit gumamit ka ng proxy, malalaman ng boss mu na gumagamit ka ng proxy at ibablock niya yun. At lahat ng most visited websites mo ay ibablock nia. At dahil dun titirahin nia yung evaluation mo para wala kang increase.

* You need a pin for your proximity card. Card gets disabled automatically if you did not use it for a certain number of days. Hassle after a vacation.
* You need an RSA SecurID token to log-in to specific networks.
* Non-office emails are blocked. All email attachments are monitored, and some contents are automatically deleted depending on keywords.
* USB ports are disabled, and they can detect work arounds.
* Company workstations are slow due to the company’s security, management, and monitoring tasks running in the background.

Sa amin we have to lan ports. One is for secure networking and the other is a lax network… As in lax with no restrictions. But the thing is its verry hasle if you are a multitasking type of a person sine hindi ka pwede magfb while workng kasi you need to go to other network pa.

At work, we need high-level government security clearance to enter the men’s room.. :(

Men’s room = GSIS Data Center

hahaha parang sa amin bawal ang mga phone na may wifi.

used to work in a company that implemented all the rules above except the last two.

I read in a TPC thread before, that some companies put glue into the PC’s USB port to prevent the use of USB devices.

IT’s just installed new anti virus called “e-scan”, they like block the websites the personnel frequently visits.. especially facebook and twitter are the top most blocked. i think they just enter the keyword and boom, that is blocked.. all usb’s are gone, no cd’s cellphone.. it’s like working in a top secret organization where what you see does not go outside the walls..

sa work ko ngayon halos lahat maliban dun sa pwede namin sabihin san kami nagwwork, buti na lang naturo na sa kin lahat ng workaround nung pinalitan ko na matagal na sa company kaya okay na ko alam ko lahat kahit bago pa lang ako hehe

in the callcenter that im working right now, were strictly implementing restriction outside the server room even install NETSUPPORT for audits, hahaha eh sa server room ang workplace ko ALAM NA!

MASARAP maging IT

Dun sa huli kong employer (international bank na nakapwesto sa the fort) ganyan din sir Abe yung regulations- usb/cellphones dapat nasa locker, naka-filter ang internet, iilan lang pwede naming puntahan na websites- (answers.com, usatoday, amazon), walang games kahit solitaire man lang. Yung id serves as security from front of building up to department floor even sa canteen di ka makakapasok pag wala kang id. And hindi rin kami ina-allow ipagkalat kung san kami nagwowork, kaya yung id namin walang company name, galing no? id na walang company name.

d2 sa amin wala masyadong restrictions excpt watching porn. pero my bandwith limit. pag lampas ka sa monthly limit… my love letter ka for sure! :D

Sa office namin walang restrictions, lalo na sa Internet. We have 2 Internet connections, yung mabagal, yun yung may restriction, yung mabilis, yun yung wala. Surf all you want, depende na sa iyo kung gusto mong mag-surf sa porn sites, pero syempre nakakahiya yun. We’ll matitino naman kami lahat sa office. As long as you do your assigned job, no problem.
