Remote access privileges may be revoked at any time by an employee’s Department Head. • If remote access is from a non-City-owned computer, updated anti-virus software must be installed and operational on the computer equipment, and all critical operating system updates must be installed prior to connecting to the City network remotely. Failure to comply could result in the termination of remote access privileges.
