Is your company keeping information secure?
Are you taking steps to protect personal information? A sound data security plan is built on five key principles:

- Scale down. Keep only what you need for your business.
- Lock it. Protect the information in your care.
- Pitch it. Properly dispose of what you no longer need.
- Plan ahead. Create a plan to respond to security incidents.
