Mobile computing and teleworking
Assign topic to the user
Answer:
You are right, mobile devices can be used for teleworking, but there are others devices that you can also use for teleworking (Desktops PC, laptops, remote servers, etc). In the Annex A of ISO 27001:2013, there are 2 different controls about this: “6.2.1 Mobile device policy” and “6.2.2 Teleworking”. So, basically teleworking refers to all forms of work outside the office, and mobile devices refers to all devices that you can move from the office to another site (outside the office).
To comply with both points, you can develop a policy, so maybe can be interesting for you our template (you can see a free version clicking on “Free demo” tab) “Mobile Device and Teleworking Policy” : https://advisera.com/27001academy/documentation/mobile-device-and-teleworking-policy/
