Today's businesses have a lot to worry about. Adding to the worry are the constant news stories about large data breaches that affect millions of customers. These breaches are costly for the businesses impacted -- both monetarily and in reputation.
Even if you are conscientious about minimizing risk in your organization, your documents might be one area you have overlooked. Sensitive documents can be affected by both internal and external threats, and most businesses do not have a comprehensive security plan in place. That's where we come in.
Our Document Security service focuses on all the ways your documents might be at risk. These risks include:
- Unregulated Paper Use: Paper documents can be a big security risk, from the copier to the filing cabinet. Many businesses do not provide rules and guidelines for proper handling. This might include print release requirements, erroneous printing, and unsecured filing cabinets. Primarily these risks are internal, but they can still result in big problems.
- Lack of Security Tools: If you are encrypting, or if you don't have a clear filing system (for paper or for cloud storage), there is a good chance you are putting your organization at risk. Proper security tools are necessary for the security and longevity of your business.
- Missing Protocols for Tracking: Whether you deal in paper or electronic documents, if you don't track who is accessing, changing, or moving documents, you have a significant risk on your hands. Electronic documents are the most easy to track, making it a smart solution to switch to paperless practices and set up access and tracking protocols.
Document security addresses all these potential risks and more. We help you gain an understanding of your infrastructure in addition to your paper and electronic document handling. And, we have the tools to help you manage electronic documents and utilize them more often. Reducing the paper documents you handle is one simple way to reduce threats.
