Personal email and stuff at work
do u guys ever open personal emails ans other shit (eg dropbox) at work or on work computer. is there any safe way of doing that? like maybe run a virtual machine on ur laptop. and keep its disk encrypted? i mostly use phone. but somethings need bigger screen sometimes.
I do use personal stuff at work machine. What are your worries?
Snooping on employee. Example scenario: I want to send immigration documents to would be employer. Or do some paperwork for some medical stuff I don't want my employer to know about.
I see. I do reply to recruiters in LinkedIn and Outlook from work machine. I often bring work to home. It is fare to do some personal stuff at work. Even if I do it in my personal laptop, Microsoft can track me if it wants to (personal windows, LinkedIn, Outlook).
SSH port forwarding.
So I'd need to set up a ssh server for that at home accicible over internet?
Yes, if your router can be reflashed with DD-WRT. Or, sign up for an AWS EC2 micro instance. Tips: modify your SSH to listen on port 443.
Why not just using your personal laptop for this kind of sensitive stuff you are talking about?
Cuz I don't bring that to work. And I don't want to wait for everything till after j get home. That basically adds 1 day delay each per communication. Might as well be using snail mail in that case.

When you're salaried, where and when you work and where and when you do personal stuff will cross over quite a bit. I probably wouldn't spend all afternoon on a personal coding project, but I've taken phone screens at work, make medical appts,pay bills, etc.
My concern isn't the time spent. My concern is visibility of the content.
Maybe you should listen to your instinct... if you feel guilty about it, maybe don't do it?
No one actually looks at that stuff. You know good way to make them start looking? Doing weird stuff like spinning up random boxes and remoting into them to send emails. To the company that's a red flag that you're stealing trade secrets or offshoring your work or something. Also think of it from the company's perspective, do you really think it's worth it to pay someone to constantly monitor everyone else's emails? What's the point? If you're going to leave you're going to leave, monitoring your email isn't going to stop that. For medical stuff I'm pretty sure you can sue your company if they snooped on medical documents and used them to discriminate against you somehow.
I bring my personal laptop to work
Don't understand why you're so concerned about being keystroked.. does your company have a history of this? Are you that special? Imo, IT have better things to do than snoop on your medical records, like watch porn or view browsing history for hotties in recruiting.
Lol. No I ain't special.
Lol. But Samantha and Caitlyn definitely are
Just teamviewer to a PC at home from work
How secure is TeamViewer?
I've actually seen people investigated for using remote desktop software that is not approved by the IT department.
Use your phone
I'll answer in the post.
