| Sep 5, 2019 at 21:41 | comment | added | teego1967 | @user2023861, really? I've never seen anyone fired because of checking gmail, news or even linkedin at work. It either has to be something outrageously over-the-top or else the IT stuff is just an easily provable way to fire someone when the real reason is something else entirely. | |
| Sep 5, 2019 at 21:39 | comment | added | teego1967 | @Dukeling, the advice given in those other answers are all over the place! blankip's answer is perhaps the most careful, but since that time (2015) there's been more tools that can decrypt TLS traffic at line rates (eg gigamon). Q/A sites perhaps aren't the best place to discuss modern, comprehensive strategies for computer hygiene but I do think there's a need for it. | |

What are the concerns of logging into personal online accounts at work? Is it safe to check personal accounts in work computer? Secure way to log in to a website on someone else's computer. | |

Made title clearer and less specific to Gmail

| Sep 5, 2019 at 10:54 | comment | added | teego1967 | @Dukeling, I think it belongs here (and there needs to be more questions around this topic). But you're right that there should be a reference of some kind so that normal people can understand the detailed implications of passwords, browsers, TLS and corporate IT. Nuanced questions of this stuff either get lost in technicality or end up with advice to never ever log into personal accounts on a work computer. There needs to be more explanation. Most people do login to personal accounts and need to understand the actual nature of the risks in workplaces. | |

| Sep 5, 2019 at 8:48 | comment | added | rackandboneman | Is there a works council and/or data protection officer at that company? | |
| Sep 5, 2019 at 8:18 | comment | added | Bernhard Barker | @SolarMike Answers here could touch on those workplace-related points, and a question asking about one or more of those points might be a good fit for this site, but that's not what this question is asking about. A reference question and answer also touching on the technical part might also be a good fit for the site. | |
| Sep 5, 2019 at 8:10 | comment | added | Solar Mike | @Dukeling don't agree, it is also about which accounts to use where, ethics of using private accounts at work etc. | |
| Sep 5, 2019 at 8:00 | comment | added | Bernhard Barker | I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because it's a technical question about protecting accounts more than a workplace one. | |

| Sep 4, 2019 at 14:34 | comment | added | Berthim | Out-of-topic but might be important for your situation : There's no country tag so legislation may vary, but when your former boss told you to leave on the spot, did he write that your contract ended immediately ? As he seems to be quite unreasonable, he might deny having fired you and declare you AWOL to ask for a compensation in the future. | |
