I really love to work from home. But I also understand IT security is dramatically complicated by user's working on their private network connection or even private client devices. Teamwork also suffers noticably in some professions.
Did chatgpt write this shite lol
Just because you can perform a job from home, doesn't mean it's ideal for performance. With jobs like surgeons or bus drivers it's more obvious, but the cut is not as clear as people like it to be.
I would hope it doesn't take you long to imagine someone who has access to information about you where you would prefer it not be open on their laptop on their kitchen table at home while guests are around.
I'm not trying to defend Amazon. This is an active subject at many companies.
Security starts at the developer, you have to be deluded to think otherwise.
NDA, bulletproof'ed laptops, kernel-level-oversight, VPNs are just mitigations.
Everything is just mitigations. There is no zero risk.
