Is your Customer’s Information Safe on Your System?

The digital age, along with all it’s benefits, also presents to us a new set of threats. We must now be cautious about the information we store on computers or transmit over the internet, especially if the information is critical as customer data or financial records. Data theft, hacking attempts and virus attacks may affect you and your business, if you do not have appropriate network security measures in place.

Online/Digital data security is a growing concern for consumers also, as more of our commerce, finance and other accounts make their way online, on our phones and in our apps (social networking apps on Facebook, mobile apps, etc.)  It’s even something many cloud services are considering, as they factor in more and more tools to protect networks through the virtualization journey.

This very phenomenon is the basis of an Infographic by CPAPolicy.com, “5 Threats to Customer Data.”  As it’s name suggests the infographic highlights the major threats (weak passwords, unsecured email and Wireless Access Points, improper data disposal & lost laptops) to your clients information present on your systems.
