Keeping out the data thieves

Keeping out the data thieves

The digitization of virtually all of modern businesses’ intellectual property puts us in a situation today where we are vulnerable to a new breed of security threat. High capacity digital storage devices, such as the USB flash drives, home broadband connections with VPN and the threat of malware are all mechanisms by which thieves can get their hands on your data.
