How Secure Is Your Data? Four Simple Things You Should Do Now!
 During this time of year the threat of fire, flood, severe storms, water damage from office sprinklers, and even theft is very real.
One of the most valuable assets for any company is its data. Hardware and software can easily be replaced, but a company's data cannot!
As a reminder to all of our clients, here are some simple things you should do to make sure your company is ready for any natural disaster.
* Back up your data remotely! Everyone knows that data should be backed up on a daily basis. However, many people still use in-house tape drives that may get damaged in a natural disaster or fire and the tapes can easily be stolen. We recommend backing up all data to an off-site location, and SHBO is proud to offer this service to our clients.
* Use a UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) with built-in surge suppression. A high quality UPS with built-in surge protector will go a long way in protecting sensitive electronic equipment from surges and other electronic irregularities that can destroy your computer.
* Make sure your servers and computers are off the floor. If your office gets flooded, having your equipment off the floor will help prevent it from being completely destroyed. Server racks can be purchased and installed to protect your equipment from any potential dangers.
* Have a disaster recovery and business continuity plan. Every business should have a plan in place for continued operation after a disaster. Would people know where to go? Who to call? How to log in and access data remotely? Hopefully you'll never need it, but having a simple plan will make you sleep a lot easier at night, knowing you have a way to continue to operate when disaster strikes.
If you need help in any of these areas, give us a call at (561) 283-0825! We can not only get you prepared, but also back up and running fast, in the event of a disaster.
