Data security is essential. If you are in the business, it’s important for your customers to know the data security you offer them. Unfortunately, there’s a really important question that often goes unasked, even by companies that make significant financial investments in these data security activities: Are the data worth protecting?
In theory, of course, the answer is typically a resounding “Yes!” But the questions that must be answered to really determine if the data are worth protecting include:
- Are the data current?
- Are the data accurate?
- Are the data comprehensive?
- Are the data complete?
You get the idea. For all of these questions, the answers are in the context of the business purpose – so if it’s OK for your purposes that data are six months old, then that would be “current enough.”
If your data are out-of-date, inaccurate, or insufficient for your business purpose you might want to take a look at your data collection and management practices. After all, your data should deserve all the protection you give it. Visionations protect your data in CrimePad with the latest technology.
