1. SECURITY CAMERAS
Keeping an eye on your
property can deter
criminals and help
identify intruders after
the fact.
ALARMS
Installing alarm systems
and displaying warning
signs in prominent
locations around your
property can be a strong
deterrent to crime.
ENCRYPTION
Use encryption when
sending anytype of
attachments via email.
ENTRANCES/EXITS
Limit the number of
entrances to your
property, and keep track
of everyone who enters
or exits.
LIGHTING
Security lighting
connected to motion
detectors can tell
intruders to steer clear of
your property.
BACKUPS
Keep sensitive
information protected
by backing it up and
securing it in a safe that
can protect it against
thieves as well as fire or
flood damage.
PASSWORDS
Make sure servers are
password-protected,
and change your
passwords regularly.
WINDOWS
Keep windows closed
and locked, especially
during off-hours.
ACT QUICKLY
When you spot a security
issue, take care of it as
soon as possible.
KEY MANAGEMENT
Ifyour business has
multiple rooms or
multiple buildings — or
even multiple vehicles —
it’s a must to use a key
management system
to track who uses keys,
when and where.
WI-FI
Don’t allow unrestricted
guest access on your
Wi-Fi network.
TREES AND BUSHES
Make sure you keep
landscaping and trees
neatlytrimmed —
otherwise, you are giving
criminals ready-made
hiding places.
