Background

Protecting business data to be robust, reliable and secure

Your business is legally obliged to ensure data is:
– used fairly, lawfully and transparently
– used for specified, explicit purposes
– used in a way that is adequate, relevant and limited to only what is necessary
– accurate and, where necessary, kept up to date
– kept for no longer than is necessary
– handled in a way that ensures appropriate security, including protection against unlawful or unauthorised processing, access, loss, destruction or damage

Impacts of not protecting data can include:

Reputational Damage:
Your clients trust you with their data, losing that trust can mean not only losing existing clients but future ones too.

Lost Competitive Advantage:
Your business data such as your customer lists have been hard earned – don’t lose the data to competitors.

Financial Claims:
If you neglect the information you hold you are liable to claims for negligence from your clients, suppliers and employees. These can be wide ranging, costly and divert resources from your core business.
