ESM and Protecting Entryways
Businesses deal with information on a day-to-day basis. Some of this information is not meant to be shared: for example, clients share personal information about themselves to a company in exchange for services. When they do this, they expect businesses to keep these private details confidential and handle it with care. Some important details can be: bank account details, debit or credit card numbers, names, and so on. Business owners are expected to protect the private information of their customers.
Security and you
This is just one example.Other sensitive information sometimes doesn’t have to be related to clients. The employees of a business have private information, as well as the business itself-- think financials. So how are business owners like yourself expected to protect this information? You may already be using it in the form of cloud access control systems, management software, and much more. It is called enterprise security management.
