First of all, risk management is the process of identifying, assessing, and controlling threats to an organization’s capital and earnings. With that said, it’s always important that you remain secure in the workplace, as threats can be very unpredictable. Even more so, it’s time to start taking a proactive approach, instead of a reactive one.
Here is the major difference between proactive and reactive. For the former, you’re preparing for threats and taking action before anything even happens. With a reactive approach, on the other hand, you don’t take action until after a threat occurs. The latter is why so many businesses become susceptible to threats. As a business practice, you need to actively work toward taking action even before something occurs.
One of the best proactive approaches to securing your business is through backing up your data on a regular basis. Aside from using a USB flash drive, always make sure to invest in cloud computing as well. A storing method that backs up all data over the Internet, you don’t have to worry about the data on your hard drive. Even if it somehow got erased, all your data is stored virtually. Not to mention you can access this virtual data via any device with an Internet connection.
