Advice on eliminating unauthorised access to patron data

Keeping your business safe online

• Ensure that all Hostel employees have their own log on for different computer systems
• Ensure that admin or privileged access is only granted to relevant personnel
• Regularly rotate passwords to shared accounts if they are used (preferably do not use shared credentials), especially accounts that are available from outside the hostel (Gmail, SaaS etc)
• Regularly run virus scans on your computer
• If possible do not keep the hostel computers on the same computer network as the Guest WiFi
• Configure and maintain a local firewall to protect the hostel computers from unauthorised access
