Many times in the IT department, we feel that our warnings are viewed as fear mongering or desperation for a sale of services. But that’s not what drives us in our daily IT fight. What really drives us is keeping our parents safe, or the fight to keep the personal information of our nieces and nephews safe. Heaven forbid that the information of our children and grandchildren be compromised!
What compels us on this journey of IT security is what makes us fight harder for our partners. Without the faith they put into us, we would not be able to put food on the table. At Advanced Systems Solutions, we apply the same principals to our loved ones that we use for our clients and partners.
Here are four simple IT security rules for you to follow.
1. Are your important files, memorable photos, and confidential information saved with the 3-2-1 rule? https://advancedsystemssolutions.com/2016/08/22/321-rule/
2. Do you change your passwords at least annually?
3. Are your computer, cell phone, and other devices up-to-date with security patches?
4. Use Multi Factor Authentication for all of your devices and applications. It will reduce your chances of being compromised by 99.9%, how can you argue with that?!
If you can’t say yes to these four questions for with “yes” for all of the devices in your company, please talk to us.
