Thieves, hackers, and intruders are constant threats
to businesses, making security a top priority. Any vulnerability can be
exploited by someone with less than honorable intentions.
These breaches in
security can be lessened by practicing some basic physical and network security
protocols such as:
· -Enforcing computer security measures such
as logging out of work stations when they are not in use.
· - Requiring employees to use complex
passwords that are not easily guessed.
· -Requiring employees to frequently change
passwords.
· -Preventing employees from logging into
personal email accounts.
· -Preventing employees from accessing sites
that may jeopardize the security of the network.
-Enforcing security protocols can prevent network
issues such as data loss and hardware/software damage.
It is important to keep
employees well-informed and trained on the security protocols in place to
ensure they are aware of the implications of breaches. Security strategies
change and evolve as new methods of attack are discovered, and all employees
should be kept up-to-date on any new procedures and processes as they become
available.
These measures provide the very basic level of
protection. In addition to these, it is also important to implement security
measures in the case of a breach or disaster, such as backup of data and
disaster recovery. If data is not backed up, it can be lost, costing companies
huge amounts of money. Environmental disasters such as floods, tornados, fires,
hazardous material spills, power failures, earthquakes, etc. can also put data
at risk. JKS can help you by reviewing your network design and performance to
ensure all industry best practices are met. Critical data can be backed up
virtually in the cloud, or at our physical data center.
