It’s only natural to think your data is most secure onsite. You know who's in your office, and who has physical access to your computers. You know your staff, and believe they all share your zeal for data security. At anytime, you can put the backup tape in your briefcase and take it home with you. Clearly, there's a sense of security in all this -and at first glance, most people feel that they are giving this up.Still, the sense of security most people feel when data is housed onsite is based more on perception than on reality. Statistics show most data breaches occur as the result of a disgruntled employee, a laptop stolen from an employee’s car, or a clever hacker finding a way into your network.
Do you really know who walks around your office? Are you positive that your backups will be there when they're needed? What if a disgruntled employee decides to do some damage? What's to prevent the computer guy from copying private patient data? Would you even be aware that there have been attempts to break into the system?
In addition, you need to worry about hard drive failures, viruses, malware, and spyware. Is your data really more secure onsite? Are you prepared for an extended power failure or a break-in? Will all your data be secure, on the server, and backed up at all times?
Protecting your data is serious business that should be evaluated logically rather than emotionally. The list of issues is long:
- Patient Privacy
- Accessibility
- Viruses
- Hardware failures
- Intruders
- Theft
