Computer Security
Most people think that computer security is mainly about keeping out hackers and protecting the bank statements from prying eyes. These kinds of issues are certainly critical, but there are two more realistic day-to-day reasons for having thorough computer security:

• You can safely drop the "lock everything up" philosophy and safely give the right access to the right people
• You can prevent many kinds of accidental deletions and disruptions that can be devastating to your on-going productivity

So what is proper security?

It is made up of four things:

• A "domain controller" computer such as Microsoft Small Business Server, which enables centralized management of passwords and data-access permissions. If you have Windows XP or 98 as a shared file or print server, you do not have a Domain Controller.
• A written policy that all staff knows and follows regarding sharing, changing and making up  passwords that cannot easily be compromised.
• A definition of job roles, at least in so far as what data they need and don't need for their jobs.
• A central "file server" machine where shared information is organized in folders that can be secured by job-role.

No worries if this seems a bit complicated. For most small and medium businesses the above 4-step process is quick and cost efficient. To accelerate your business with the right kind of security and peace of mind, you know who to contact.
