A thin client remote desktop protocol (RDP) is the most effective remote access model for reducing the likelihood of attacks originating from connecting devices, because it minimizes the amount of data and processing that occurs on the remote device. A thin client RDP only sends keyboard, mouse and display information between the remote device and the server, while the actual processing and storage of data happens on the server. This reduces the exposure of sensitive data and applications to potential attackers who may compromise the remote device.

Remote employee monitoring software is a solution that collects, analyzes and reports data on the activities and behaviors of employees who work remotely or from home. It can help organizations to measure and improve employee productivity, performance, engagement and security. However, it also poses significant privacy risks and challenges, as it may involve the collection and processing of personal data, such as names, email addresses, biometric data, IP addresses, keystrokes, screenshots, web browsing history, app usage, communication content and frequency, etc.

Data access should be restricted based on roles, meaning that only authorized and legitimate parties should be able to access and use the data collected by the remote employee monitoring software, based on their roles and responsibilities within the organization. This is a key privacy principle and practice that helps to protect the privacy rights and interests of the employees, and to prevent unauthorized or excessive access, use, disclosure or modification of their personal data by the organization or third parties. Data access restriction based on roles also helps to comply with data protection laws and regulations, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), which require data controllers and processors to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to safeguard personal data.

Anonymization is a technique that removes or modifies all identifiers in a data set to prevent or limit the identification of the data subjects. Anonymization is an IT privacy practitioner’s best recommendation to reduce privacy risk before an organization provides personal data to a third party, as it would protect the privacy of the data subjects by reducing the linkability of the data set with their original identity, and also comply with the data minimization principle that requires limiting the collection, storage and processing of personal data to what is necessary and relevant for the intended purposes. Anonymization would also preserve some characteristics or patterns of the original data that can be used for analysis or research purposes by the third party, without compromising the accuracy or quality of the results. The other options are not as effective as anonymization in reducing privacy risk before an organization provides personal data to a third party. Tokenization is a technique that replaces sensitive or confidential data with non-sensitive tokens or placeholders that do not reveal the original data, but it does not prevent or limit the identification of the data subjects, as tokens can be reversed or linked back to the original data using a tokenization system or key. Aggregation is a technique that combines individual data into groups or categories that do not reveal the identity of the data subjects, but it may not prevent or limit the identification of the data subjects, as aggregated data can be de-aggregated or re-identified using other sources of information or techniques. Encryption is a technique that transforms plain text data into cipher text using an algorithm and a key, making it unreadable by unauthorized parties, but it does not prevent or limit the identification of the data subjects, as encrypted data can be decrypted or linked back to the original data using an encryption system or key1, p. 74-75 References: 1: CDPSE Review Manual (Digital Version)
