IT Challenge: Clean up your inbox and protect sensitive information
This week we focus on something simple but very important: keeping your inbox clean and secure. Small efforts in everyday life can make a big difference to both organisation and IT security in your company.
Here's how to clear your inbox:
- Take 5 minutes and go through your inbox Delete old emails with attachments that you no longer need, especially those that may contain sensitive information.
- Don't forget the sent folder Attachments you have sent can be just as important to clean up to protect your company's information.
Why it is important:
- Old emails with attachments may contain sensitive information that should not be kept.
- A cleaner inbox makes it easier to find the right email when needed.
- Reduces the risk of information being shared by mistake.
- Contributes to order and security, and makes GDPR-coordinator is happy.
Make inbox cleansing a habit
Even if you don't have time this week, try to set aside a few minutes regularly to clear your inbox. It takes a little time, but the payoff is huge - both for business IT security and for a more organised workday.
