Back in the old days when word processing was still in its infancy, a lot of people lost a lot of valuable data when computers crashed. Once the data was lost, there was no way of getting the information back easily. Those were the frustrating old day. Now auto save features are standard and we can also save data and back it up directly onto the cloud or on local storage facilities in real time. Despite all these, accidents and mistakes still do happen and data might potentially be lost. There are also many ways through which data may be lost, compromised, or corrupted. Our job at TDG is ensure that all the data you collect and have is securely protected from every possible disruption.
Data protection is a set of guidelines and processes you can use to secure the privacy, availability, and integrity of your data. It is at times also referred to as data security or information privacy. A data protection strategy is critical for any organization that collects, handles, or stores data, which in most cases is very sensitive.
There are many ways of securing the data. We do our best to cover all the bases. Here are some of the ways data can be protected, listed in no order of importance:
- Encrypting the data
- Backing up the data
- Anti-malware protection
- Keeping all systems updated
- Use of firewalls
- Use strong passwords and protect the passwords
- Not installing sketchy and unapproved software
- Overwrite deleted files
- Securing the WiFi
- Disposing of old IT equipment and records securely
After we set up data protection solutions for our clients, we do offer comprehensive data security training for all users who will have access to the data. We are also available for client support at all times.
We also realize that in some cases there are rules and regulations that must be complied with to keep the data accurate, safe, secure and lawful. As part of our data protection solutions, we do make sure that all applicable data laws are adhered to. Our job is to make sure that your data is secure and that all redundancies are in place to ensure that no data is lost or compromised.
