Last week, I was travelling from Pune to Nashik. I started sharp at 6 am by a cab provided by a contracted travel agency. On 36th milestone, we had a flat tyre. It was a hilly area with no help. The driver was nervous and made me nervous by disclosing that he did not have a usable spare tyre. Now check on my loss.
A. We lost the opportunity of 4 deals in Nashik on that day
B. First time in my life, I learned how to take a lift, convince (read plead or beg) on-goers to oblige you for a ride back to Pune
C. I was fully soaked in heavy rain and shivering
D. It was my last appearance in my big buck designer business suit
E. I am missing my hi-fi laptop which had an undesired bath
One small thing, taken for granted by a driver, cost hugely on Synersoft.
This forced me to think about enterprise owners who depend on underqualified IT executives or Sales Oriented IT dealers to preserve and protect their invaluable digital assets like designs, drawings, documents, spreadsheets, emails, ERP data and many more.
I am putting forth 10 questions, every enterprise owner must ask their IT team or IT dealer. If they say that they are mostly (not fully) doing it, believe me, you are also riding a car without a spare wheel. They can’t imagine the seriousness of your potential losses.
Here are the questions,
If the answer is, we have instructed users to save data on a server or NAS device, so we take a backup of only server or NAS device. Ask the following question
If the answer is, a blank face, ask them to check the forced centralization feature of BLACKbox. It will not leave you at the mercy of users discretion to save data on central storage. They will have no choice but to save data centrally. This is the video you may check. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Ik5C4smovM
If the answer is, we have firewall/antivirus, ask the following question.
If the answer is, a blank face, ask them to check the DCDC technology of BLACKbox. It is your plan B to rebound from a ransomware attack in no time when your firewall/antivirus fails. Check this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wTqVn7jJ1oE
If the answer is, we will get it back from backup, ask the following question
If the answer is, a blank face, ask them to check the Active Recycle Bin feature of BLACKbox, which instantly restores the data and highlights, who deleted it.
If they have a blank face, ask them to evaluate VPN based secured data backup of laptops and servers on BLACKbox data center. Check this video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TNHI0lXMlU
If the answer is a blank face, ask them to check Duo feature of BLACKbox which isolates enterprise data and takes automatic backup as and when the laptop is online.
If the answer as vague as firewall or antivirus, pls be sure that you have leakage points through emails, USB and internet, even if you have got a firewall. Check this video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDP6kYO4TA8
If the answer is a blank face, ask them to check M-Duo feature of BLACKbox, check this video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rj6bnXdboKA
Just like a cab driver did not realize the potential loss of not keeping a spare wheel, believe me, an underqualified IT executive or sales-oriented IT vendor cannot imagine losses you may incur due to loss of data or theft of data. If they tell you that they have mostly (not fully) done it, ask them to do it in full-proof way, BLACKbox does it in full proof manner.
