Computer Security Still An Important Issue

Worried about your computer security? You should be.
Don Barnes, of PeaceFrog Productions, LLC, a technology company, believes one of the most vital things for business owners to consider is off-site back-ups for their data. Statistically speaking, Barnes says, 90% of small businesses that lose their data to drive failures and don’t have redundant back-ups or off-site back-ups end up going out of business.
Data back-up and protection is imperative in today’s business market, no matter what business you’re in, states Barnes. “Make sure you’re backing up your data on at least a weekly basis, although I recommend doing it daily. It may seem like a hassle, but it’s nothing compared to what could happen if you lost your client database or the latest project data to a hard drive failure. As an IT buddy of mine is always saying, ‘It isn’t if you’re hard drive is going to fail—it’s when.”
