Your business, whatever its size, most likely processes and maintains information every day. At least annually, take time to review your data privacy practices to reinforce your information security and to reassess your cyber protection.
Most businesses, large or small, are aware of the threats to their data security, whether from viruses, hackers or their own internal employees. Consider some simple practices to help protect your sensitive data.
Data breaches make the news when big retail chains get hit with a cyber attack. You may even be notified of the breach by the retailer if they have reason to believe your data was compromised. Or, you may read about data breaches when you receive a new credit card or are offered identity theft protection. What you might not hear about are the cases where a business owner goes bankrupt after a data breach.
