S 3.22 Regulations concerning substitution of
telecommuters
Initiation responsibility: IT Security Management, Superiors
Implementation responsibility: Telecommuter
In addition to safeguard M 3.3 Arrangements for substitution, further
measures are required if a telecommuter needs to be substituted. As
telecommuters work mainly outside the institution, an information flow
between them and their stand-ins must be guaranteed. Documentation of the
results of work performed by telecommuters is also indispensable. In addition,
it might be advisable for telecommuters and their stand-ins to meet on a
sporadic or regular basis.
It is also necessary to prepare regulations on how stand-ins are to access data
and documents from telecommuting workstations should the need for this
arise unexpectedly.
Additional controls:
- Have stand-ins for telecommuters been appointed?
- Have test substitutions been performed?
