Have you ever been working on an email or typing out a document on your computer and all of a sudden there is a power failure and you realize you just lost everything? Or have you ever saved all of your files onto your laptop without saving anything to a cloud or external hard drive and one day your laptop just won’t turn on and your files are gone never to be seen again? Do you know anyone who’s Facebook or Instagram account has been hacked? Have you ever shared a file in the cloud and all of sudden there are files missing? I wish I could say these examples are made up, but they are not. I have experienced some of them between myself, my clients, friends and others that I know; it’s happened to them. Most recently, a client had a former employee maliciously destroy their online shared drive. These are situations that are devastating, stressful and time consuming to fix, and in some cases, they are not able to be fixed. That comes at a (astronomically) high price. The cost could be proprietary company information for you or a client that is no longer accessible, or perhaps it’s lost client deliverables that have to be recreated which delays the timeline and deadline. The consequences are real, and when it happens to you there is no feeling that can be described, especially when you know you could have prevented it from happening. Here are 3 Easy Steps to Protect your Information. As my Father always said, “There is an easy way and a hard way, and sometimes we will only learn the hard way.” I always want to help people avoid learning the hard way and if you implement these 3 easy steps, I assure you that your information will be much more protected than it is now.
