That means taking steps to keep the confidential data on the company network, and to ensure the safety of the building.
We recommend companies can enhance the safety of their operations and protect their businesses by taking both physical and virtual security into account. Here are some of the basics to consider:
Internal Threats
While concern about physical break-ins and computer hackers is justified, it is as important for business owners and company management to address the threats that can come from inside the office walls.
From disgruntled employees to workers who are merely careless, companies face many internal threats.
Management teams should give workers access only to the files they need, and network administrators can greatly reduce the chance that valuable data will be lost, through either deliberate action or simple carelessness.
Physical Security
Physical security goes beyond simply locking the doors when the last employee leaves for the night. Every business should implement a systematic security strategy that includes employee training.
Everyone who works at the company needs to be aware of the importance of building security, and workers should be trained not to allow anyone they do not know on to the premises.
Company managers should implement a system that requires all visitors to sign in and be escorted while they are on the premises.
Badge System
A badge system can help keep the building safe and secure and provide other benefits as well.
A badge system helps ensure that no unauthorized users can enter the building, protecting the office when no workers are present. Badge codes can be updated instantly to prevent former employees from entering the building.
Badge systems also can be integrated into a timekeeping system, making it easy for company managers to keep track of employees' working hours.
