The following are measures to ensure data security:
·
Data Limitation: Storing a lot of data on the local system is not
recommended. This is because in case of any calamity, everything will be lost.
To be on the safe side, you need to store only information that is necessary.

·
Use Online Data Backup: One way to make your data secure is to keep it in a
location that is separate from your business. Enlist the services of a reliable
cloud storage company that will make sure your data is safe from external
intrusion or unauthorized internal access. When data is stored on the cloud,
you avoid loss or theft due to natural calamities. The security methods
employed are the latest which means no one can access your data without
permission.

Protect Your Computer: A firewall and up to date antivirus software is foundational. If you
don’t have those in place, then you’re leaving the door wide open for the not
so nice to walk right in and help themselves.

Choose Your Password Wisely: Sensitive data should always be protected by a
password. Always choose passwords containing more than one word, using symbols
or numbers and being 8+ characters.

Data Encryption: Having firewalls and passwords is good; but at times
people can bypass all these and access your data. When encrypted, the data the
person will meet will be in a form that they cannot understand. Without an
encryption key, this data is totally useless to the intruder.
