I usually connect to my work VPN on my personal Mac and then use Windows Remote Desktop client to access my work computer.

Today on my Mac while disconnected from the VPN I noticed the username/machine that usually shows up in the terminal as this: myusername@macbook-pro ~

was showing as worksystemadmin@workcomputer ~

enter image description here

where worksystemadmin is the username of the system admin at work and workcomputer is a computer on the work network

could it be possible that he got access to my Mac?
