Post# of 91
SideChannel Inc. (OTCQB: SDCH) CEO Brian Haugli was quoted as a cybersecurity expert in a recent IT Brew article. A cybersecurity services company, SideChannel is committed to creating top-tier cybersecurity programs for mid-market companies to help them protect their assets. Titled “How to Keep Access-Control Under Control Amid Layoffs,” the article discussed the importance of maintaining control over who has admin access to a company’s key IT during layoffs and restructurings. The article noted that when employees are terminated, it is sometimes unclear whether they’ve relinquished their access privileges before they leave the building. The article pointed out that a number of strategies existed to help companies prepare for the risks that can occur when people with administrator privileges are deprovisioned; some of those strategies include consolidated access controls, visibility tools and isolated offboarding practices. In the article, Haugli recommends the “easy” shutdown method: Put the person in a room with HR, away from devices, while others dismantle access, lessening the chance of data leaks caused by insider ire. “That’s when you don’t want to screw up—when you’re letting an admin go, for whatever reason, and those people will literally have the ability to take down your production, your business, whatever it is that you hold dear to your organization,” said SideChannel CEO Brian Haugli in the article. “With a remote-heavy world now, this is proving a little bit more difficult to navigate, but not undoable.”
