🚨 Everything we know about the laptop monitoring tool installed by TCS.
• TCS has deployed a Digital User Experience Monitoring tool on company-issued laptops.
• The tool can track which apps employees use and how much time they spend on them.
• TCS could be using it to prevent data leaks, improve IT systems, and monitor digital performance.
• However, employees are concerned that it could also be used for individual activity or productivity tracking.
• TCS has not publicly clarified the software's name, vendor, what data it collects, or who can access the data.
• It is also unclear whether the data is linked to individual employees or only used in an aggregated form by IT and security teams.
• With TCS having nearly 600,000 employees, managing such a huge amount of activity data could itself be challenging.
• The move comes after TCS expanded its partnership with Zscaler and launched a workplace digital-monitoring solution, but it is not confirmed whether the same technology is being used.
