It seems that every week there is a new security breach. Whether it’s hackers taking consumer information from Target, or a massive social security data breach, it’s common to see sensitive information end up in the wrong hands. Unfortunately, with the advance in digital technology, comes the need for increased security measures to keep your data and information safe.
At Datasmith we cringe when we see reports of a new hack. Safety and security is our number one priority. Our team of engineers is constantly monitoring your cloud based storage and other solutions to ensure data integrity, smooth operation, and security.
How do we do it? It’s not easy. Keeping data stored digitally requires using a variety of techniques. This month will explore all the ways we keep your data safe while debunking some common cloud misconceptions. The first technique we use is creating a customized solution plan.
Many business owners, consumers, and technology users think that everything has to go into the cloud. Although this is a trend to take more apps, storage, and programs virtual, there is still some programs best left on hardware devices. At Datasmith we analyze your business. We learn what you do and how technology is helping or hindering you at that moment.
Then we recommend a customized solution plan for you. That means a mix of different technological solutions. Sometimes we recommend cloud-based storage, a virtual PBX phone system, and a hardware based CRM server. Other times we will recommend a HIPPA compliant cloud based storage system and then updating your current hardware. It all depends on what your business needs. You should never feel forced to convert all your technology into a certain area. A true provider will recommend a plan that fits your needs, not their sales goals.
By using a mix medium of technological solutions, we can create a multi-level security plan to keep your information, data, and client database safe and secure. Join us next week when discuss the next security measure: compliance.
