Business Owners Caring for their Data

Do you have your data cared for properly and backed up properly to avoid any possibility of data loss or data corruption?

Owning a business or practice can be a challenge and as the owner, you must deal with all aspects of operating your business effectively.  Does your office have the right tools and solutions in place to allow minimal downtime for generating revenue if an issue arises with your data?

There are many elements that can contribute to data loss or corruption that are not in a business owner’s control.

• Employee error 

• Hardware failure

• Natural disasters 

• Computer viruses

The pressure is on every practice and business owner to ensure their patients’ and customers’ data is securely protected, backed up and easily retrievable! Making a complete copy of all data contained on your server and keeping it in one place opens any owner or business to extreme vulnerability – now add health and personal data to that exposure!

Education of employees

As everyone knows, a data catastrophe/failure is as easy as any colleague clicking on and/or downloading an attachment that is corrupt sending your practice into downtime and data recovery mode. 90% of data loss is contributed to human error! HOW a practice backs up their data is key.  Teach your employees the key elements to avoiding these issues.  If you are using USB drives to back up your data, is your staff needs to switch them out daily. 

Backup operations and data encryption go hand in hand 

A backup operation will encrypt your data, therefore protecting you and your practice from any sensitive patient information getting into the wrong hands. Daily Backups are essential! In the event of data loss, encrypted backups stored locally are able to be restored keeping your practice HIPAA compliant. While local storage is a daily to do, cloud replication is a MUST in today’s world of compliance and efficiency. Cloud replication gives you as the business owner peace of mind knowing that in the event of a catastrophic failure or simply human error, you can restore your data and be up and running in as little time as possible.
