Remote IT systems (e.g. telecommuting workstations) can usually access a large number of resources in a corporate network. This constantly poses a threat of data and program theft.
Access by remote IT systems (e.g. remote workstations) to a corporate network also gives rise to a danger of misuse of services offered within the network. Fraudulent use of communications servers (e.g. fax gateway, Internet links etc.) for private purposes in a network can result in unnecessary, extra charges.
