You see spyware loaded onto your office computer
Spyware, including key-stroke and screenshot trackers, can provide your boss with a (disturbingly) granular look at what you’re doing on your office computer. Here’s how you might be able to discern if it’s been installed on your computer, according to Forbes:
PC: Hit “Alt-Ctrl-Del” to pull up “Task Manager,” and click on “Processes.”
Mac: Go to your “Utilities” folder and open the “Activity Monitor” app.
Look through the history for potential spyware such as VNC, RealVNC, TightVNC, UltraVNC, LogMeIn, Shadow, Silent Watch, and GoToMyPC – just know that this isn’t even close to an exhaustive list.
