Last Friday, the National Security Agency released a guide aimed mainly towards 
U.S. Government employees and military service members are working from home, 
but is also ideal for business professionals on Selecting and Safely Using 
Collaboration Services for Telework.

This cybersecurity guidance contains a snapshot of current, 
commercially-available collaboration tools available for use, along with a list 
of security criteria to consider when selecting which capability to leverage. 
In addition, the guidance contains a high-level security assessment of how each 
capability measures up against the defined security criteria, which can be used 
to more quickly identify the risks and features associated with each tool.

Criteria to Consider When Selecting a Collaboration Service

The criteria below identify risks and features to consider when choosing 
collaboration services to support your mission. All criteria should be strongly 
considered but may not be fully supported based on your own operating 
environment and constraints. The criteria are intended to align with related 
USG guidance to include NIST SP 800-171r2 – Protecting Controlled Unclassified 
Information in Non-Federal Systems and Organizations (Feb 2020) and NIST SP 
800-46r2 Guide to Enterprise Telework, Remote Access and BYOD Security (Apr 
2016).
