As it turns out, there really isn’t a big difference between protecting yourself as an employee working in an office compared to protecting yourself as an individual.

The goal of this guide is to walk you through some steps that will make maintaining your security and protecting your identity so much easier. It will take some time and effort at first, but once everything is set up and working, staying safe will become a much easier process.

This guide might help them reduce the risk of expensive, frustrating problems.
