The best laid plans, and all that...

Mar 23, 2015 00:54

It appears that in my last post I was (perhaps naively) hoping to find time to post some reviews this week. How does it go?: the best way to make the gods laugh is to tell them your plans. ;)

Cut for work-talk, about half and half bitching and trying to find the bright side )

work, result!

Well done for surviving that lot, it sounds like a nightmare.

WiFi security is undoubtedly a problem. We get round it at my work by having a guest wifi separate to the wifi for people with work machines. I'd guess not having that is a cost issue, but broadband isn't that expensive!

Is the laptop your own personal one? Or one provided by the school?
I know very little about such things, but a properly implemented VPN (virtual private network) should mean you can access the network from anywhere, but it does make sense to limit the machines that can access the VPN. Personal laptops are far more likely to have already been compromised and then they're just letting the nasties straight in through the front door.

All that security doesn't really help you if you can't do your job though :(

I hope this week is a lot better! <3
