Leaking sensitive information out of the door through any medium be it a hard drive, a USB, a CD or via email, employees can bring huge financial and reputational losses to businesses. So, it becomes crucial to keep a tab on employees so that they don\u2019t turn out to be disasters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>But how can a company spot the wrong employee, especially in the big sized organizations. There are several employee tracking tactics that can be applied. Let\u2019s take a look:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pay attention to the \u2018in\u2019 and \u2018out\u2019 timings of the employees every once in a while. This will help you understand about their presence in the office during working hours.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep a check upon employee behaviour by organizing fun events and activities. This is going to help you understand how they perform within a team and individually.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The external devices such as USBs, CD drives, etc, brought by employees inside the company should be checked before they leave the premises. \u00a0You can even create a policy for not bringing any external devices to office.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The type of content browsed by employees can be a good indicator toward their intentions. Taking screenshots of their computer screens after a certain time period on regular basis can help you with this. You can automate this process with the help of an employee monitoring software.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep a check on the apps used by employees on their computers. Messaging apps such as <strong>Skype, Google Hangout, and data sharing apps<\/strong> such as Fileshare may be used to transfer company data to outside sources.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Monitor what type of documents are printed by employees using the company printer. An unusual printing count could be an indication for something suspicious.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep a track of the hardware and software changes that happen on computer systems in the company network. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Often businesses have no clue about a breach that happens through employees, but is believed to be because of external threats. Having <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reveantivirus.com\/en\/product\/endpoint-security-solutions\" target=\"_blank\">endpoint security solutions<\/a><\/strong> on your company network is a smart measure to secure your sensitive data and root out the bad employees.
