Cloud Computing and Your Privacy – You will Be Surprise!
Apr 29th
Passed in 1986, ECPA updated the federal wiretap statute, known as Title III, was an attempt to take into account the rise of cellular technologies and electronic messaging.
ECPA brought these new forms of communications under the legal controls of the wiretap law, requiring the police to get a warrant to intercept cell phone transmissions, just as under Title III they needed a warrant to intercept wire line or hard wire calls. Private interception was also made illegal.
The information revolution has continued to advance since 1986 and unfortunately for the most part ECPA has not kept up. The explosion of new data sources, and in particular the now billions or perhaps trillions of messages sent and received each day by individuals communicating through the Internet has created an explosion of data , offsite data backup and data storage needs.. The potential evidence these messages contain for a variety of investigations be it criminal, civil, terror-related has made them an irresistible target for law enforcement as well as civil litigants.

Laptop Backup is Not Optional Anymore.
Oct 4th
Last month the Oregon National Guard reported that they are dealing with the aftermath of a stolen laptop computer that contained the names and social security numbers of more than 3,500 soldiers. It happened when a Guard member used his laptop to conduct work from home and reported it stolen from his vehicle in the Portland area on June 21.
Statistics show that nearly three out of five personal computer users are lost, stolen, or damaged every year and, by the way, the most common place to lose a laptop is in the airport.

Disasters Strike When You Least Expect It- So Protect your Data

–It Shouldn’t Take a Situation Like the Earthquake in Haiti to Realize You Must Protect Your Data From Catastrophic Loss –
Fires, floods, hurricanes, power outages and other natural disasters can all wreck havoc with business continuity especially if you don’t backup your data on a regular basis.
The dramatic situation in Haiti shows us that unfortunately they need to start from scratch now, rebuilding from the ground up. The hospitals and even the Haitian government is at a major loss because there are no resources, no database, and no data from the field because everything is down. It’s difficult for them to make a decision now about how to move forward because they don’t know where to start.
Studies have shown that when a business is down for more than three days the likelihood that it will go out of business permanently is great. That is because if customers can’t reach you, if employees can’t access the data and must be sent home and if business comes to a grinding halt because you can’t access your data– then you lose income, credibility and customers for the duration of time that your business is down.
By backing up your data regularly, no one has to worry about this situation occurring.
According to PC Magazine, in 1876, Lieutenant Colonel George Custer led a small force of soldiers against an overwhelming force of Lakota Sioux and Cheyenne warriors at Little Bighorn. Reinforcements were on the way, but Custer thought he wouldn’t need them. Everyone knows what happened to Custer. The moral of his story is that no force can succeed if it stands alone and outnumbered. The same is true of your business data. Without a solid backup plan you may be making your last stand.
You must realize that every business and organizations have unique connections and there is no substitute or source to recreate these connections unless you have a backup for your business assets.
You owe it to yourself and your business to investigate breakthrough backup and recovery solutions that reduce both cost and complexity while increasing IT’s capability to protect critical business data and minimize business disruptions during recoveries. Whether its emails, accounting, or business documents, everything today is digital and backup is essential in today’s business environment because you never know what can happen.
