With the recent crisis around Hurricane Irene, this is not too difficult to imagine anymore!

Ohio is at risk for experiencing severe weather at any point in the calendar year.

It is time to get thinking about preparing your company for survival.

With the recent crisis around Hurricane Irene, this is not too difficult to imagine anymore!

Ohio is at risk for experiencing severe weather at any point in the calendar year.

It is time to get thinking about preparing your company for survival.

FACT: 1 in every 4 companies will not survive a disaster.

Now is the time to ask yourself some important questions:

Question #1: Can you locate your disaster/emergency plan right now (as in today) in case of an emergency? What would be your first action step?

Question #2: Now that you have located your disaster recovery plan, when was the last date it was updated?

Question #3: Does your company have action procedures that are documented in case of a disasterous event, and how to respond with proper escalation procedures?

Question #4: Are your vital records protected?

Question #5: Have off-site storage procedures been established for those vital records?

If you answered “NO” to any of these questions, it is time to begin an action plan.  Your disaster recovery plan could be as simple as indexing current data, and storing off-site records to start.

Every financial/insurance institution must have measures in place to keep customer information secure. Three major components of the GLBA require insurance companies to research and implement:

  • Efficient means for information distribution
  • Proven security procedures to protect personal information
  • Proactive measures to prevent and guard against threats to security and integrity

Safeguarding your important information assets is not just for compliance with GLBA, it makes good business sense.
