DATA LOSS PREVENTION
What do you have to lose?
Like it or not, in the 21st Century we are living and working in a knowledge economy. Information fuels business and enterprises will succeed and fail according to the quality of their data and their ability to access, interpret and apply it. The law of the jungle still applies and information is both critical and vulnerable. It's not just the knowledge brokers either; even companies selling tangible products create, utilise and store information which could be devastating in the wrong hands.
The ubiquity of USB media and an increasingly high-tech mobile workforce means the risk of data theft or accidental loss is greater than ever.
From 6th April 2010, privacy regulator authority the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) was handed new powers to issue fines under the Data Protection Act. The ICO can issue fines for reckless breaches of the Act's principles - such as losing unencrypted laptops or memory sticks.
Moreover, it's not just lost laptops and memory sticks, any business with more than one member of staff is potentially vulnerable to a social engineering attack and only effective data protection procedures.
Failure to protect your assets, and your customer and employee data, could be very costly from a legal perspective not to mention the potential commercial damage.
The answer is a blend of well thought out policies and procedures, applied consistently and combined with robust encryption and endpoint security technology.
