Security
Your data is your greatest business asset, without it your business will not function therefore it should be protected to prevent competitors gaining an unfair advantage.
Preventing unauthorised access to your network, securing communications between sites and remote users and preventing data theft are all crucial to the day to day survival of any business.
Business plans, customer details, intellectual property, pricing, designs, passwords, ideas, employee details, company accounts. All of these equal company data and are stored on your IT network.
In today’s fiercely competitive world the value of your company data has never been higher and disturbingly it has never been easier to steal or lose.
In this modern digital world of mobile phones, USB memory sticks, cameras, MP3 players, laptops and a plethora of other mobile devices you data can easily be spread, duplicated, stolen, lost or fall into the wrong hands.
Here are a few statistics that show the scale of the risks:
• 6 out of every 10 employees stole company data when they left their job last year. (Source - BBC News 23/02/2009).
• Every 6 months over 55,000 mobile phones and 6,000 other devices, such as laptops, are left in the back of London black cabs alone. (Source - Computer Weekly Sept 2008 from surveys taken in 2004 and 2008).
• 50% of USB drives contain confidential information. (Source - IDC)
