Laptop Encryption
Laptops are small, portable and valuable – this is what makes them a tempting target to thieves. Recently, we have heard of cases of Irish banks, health services and corporations being vilified in the media for the loss of confidential customer data on laptops that were not properly secured or encrypted.
A laptop loss or theft is always inconvenient and there is the potential that your business documents could be accessed by criminals if your laptop is not encrypted. It is even more serious if you store private data about clients and the damage to your business would be catastrophic should this fall into the wrong hands.
