Are You Getting the Best Out of the Web?

Would your business run more smoothly if your customers, employees or vendors could fill out forms, look up records, or request information just by going online?
 
How much easier would your job be if you got all the details about every order right the first time? What if your customers could select, review and approve the details themselves? What if they could look up their order later, to make sure they had entered it correctly?
 
There is an endless supply of things to put on the Web:
 
  • Forms
  • Applications
  • Reports
  • Flowcharts
  • Procedures
  • Schematics
 
Internal, or external. Secure, or for the whole world to see. PerAspera Consulting, LLC can help you put your business online.
 
Say goodbye to paper forms for good! Get to your data from anywhere, and keep it forever.

Save Time, Money and Effort -
Lease Your Network

Do you have a small business--even one with five employees or less?

Are you tired of limping along on used computer equipment, with substandard service, just because you can't afford the IT budget bigger companies enjoy?

If you could make your computer problems vanish with a simple, affordable, reliable solution, would you do it in an instant?

Of course you would!

That's why PerAspera is pleased to introduce the Turn-Key Network Lease!

Get all of this:
  • Workstations
  • Server
  • Multifunction Printer, Scanner, Copier, Fax
  • Software
  • Professional, Reliable Service and Support
For one low monthly payment.

Stop throwing money away by purchasing equipment outright--equipment that will just be obsolete in two or three years.

Keep your cash in the bank, not tied up in your computer system.

Put your capital into the parts of your business that will generate revenue directly, while you still enjoy the advantages of a state-of-the-art information system.

Call PerAspera and ask us about the Turn-Key Network Lease today!   913-385-7102, Option 1
ProtectIdentity Theft Facts

Stan AdellStan
Olathe, KS


Identity Theft is to knowingly transfer, possess, or use without lawful authority another person's personal information to secure services or products, or to commit crimes in that person's name.  
  • America's fastest growing white collar crime
  • 26 percent of all consumer fraud complaints
  • More than 79 million reported victims in 2007. USA Today 12/30/07
  • 1 out of 700 thieves are ever prosecuted; most crimes are not even reported
  • Average dollar amount is $92,893
  • Victims can take up to 600 hours to restore their identity

Five Types of Identity Theft
Financial, Drivers License, Social Security, Medical, Criminal

Laptops are becoming more common and vital for businesses and families.
  • 700,000 to 1 million laptops are stolen each year. Infoworld: October 2004
  • 1.2 million laptops and PDAs are lost between hotels and airports each year. The Computer Insurance Institute Processor: Vol.27 Issue 18, May 6, 2005

Why should all businesses, corporations, schools, financial institutions, hospitals and governmental bodies be concerned about identity theft, FACTA-Red Flag Rules, GLB Safeguard Rules, and state legislation? 
Answer: Liability, both civil and criminal.

If any data regarding a company's customers, employees or vendors is stolen, lost, mishandled or misplaced, that company may find themselves facing legal and financial issues.

What happens if you are a victim of Identity Theft?
  • Contact FTC, Police Dept, FBI and other government agencies
  • Place "Fraud Alerts" on your accounts
  • Contact each company where an account was improperly opened or changed
  • Everything must be in writing with supporting documents (affidavits, police reports or other forms).
  • The best solution is to have a comprehensive service that provides complete monitoring and restoration of your identity.
