Securing your data is an important part of protecting your business assets. While you may not consider data to be an asset, consider what the cost of recovering lost or stolen data would be. The cost to your business could be just a few hours of time spent recovering data or numerous fees if your vertical market is compliancy regulated. Heart Technologies, Inc. can help you secure your data and protect it like the business asset it is.

How it's done

Heart helps businesses to:

• Perform a risk assessment - Our trained technicians construct a risk assessment that will help you define your data assets, assess potential risks, and create a plan to secure your data.

• Create a security and an acceptable use policy - Once your assessment is complete, Heart helps you craft an acceptable use policy that identifies what end users can do with your business's computer information systems.  Many companies also build a security policy to define how your systems are set up, how they are protected, and how they must be maintained.  We also help you create the infrastructure to support and enforce that policy.
