L & 39; following experiment & 39; arise from a situation that I have encountered & 39; as & 39; owner of a small business. J & 39; I started with one employee, Michael. It was a fabulous C + + programmer, who had a talent for innovative coding. J & 39; have handled the plan & 39; business, accounting and sales, and it has generated and maintained our software. As the company grows & 39;, it is however necessary & 39; hire a secretary. She was very dedicated and willing to work under the small business. Because we have tried to maintain a prudent bottom line, she used her own laptop at work. Michael and I personnel well.
As PC used as the company continued & 39; evolve, we found ourselves produce a mountain of records and other documentation. We had personal info files, customer files, billing, accounting, sales, etc., etc., etc. Even with a network of offices, I & 39; have begun to grow poorly in & 39; comfortable that the documents were been downloaded to the desktop, edited, and never merged with the network originals. J & 39; I felt the need to respect & 39; software or a records management system, but no common sense, because I thought it would be too costly to justify & 39; cost.
Fast forward three years, and the company was still chugging along. We had a number of hires and fires and, ultimately, our first secretary had to leave. & 39; C is that the disaster struck. It proves that & 39; s & 39; a number of highly sensitive documents have been undertaken on your PC when she left, to his knowledge & 39;. And & 39; unbeknownst to us, it & 39; there was no backup on the network. As Murphy & 39; s Law would have it, his hard drive malfunctioned beyond repair and left us in a lurch.
We recovered, but it costs us a tremendous amount of money & 39;. Since then, we used a solid compliance software that almost cancels my risk of & 39; company. I have found the & 39; after taking the conservation of documents & 39; risk assessment. J & 39; like to recommend a software compliance for any business, large or small. It hurts me to know that other d & 39; are currently in the same fight. At least, that is & 39; c & 39; they are our competitors.
