Disaster DATA Recovery & Your SystemPersonal Computer Catherine Agnew CEDu 581 - Oconomowoc
My Security Philosophy, Part 1 While I have never had my computer crash big-time (it can be slow from time to time), I have taken some security precautions to protect my computer and myself. Personally, I do not give out my passwords and seldom check the boxes on websites that ask if I want the computer to remember me. Someone will always have access to that information.
My Security Philosophy, Part 2 I also check for the lock at the bottom of a screen when giving personal information so that I know that there is some protection of my information. I do run an anti-virus program on my personal computer, but feel I could be more proactive in backing up my files. I want the maximum amount of protection at a reasonable price in an anti-virus program that is also easy to use.
My Security Philosophy, Part 3 If something does happen to my computer, I want to have everything backed up and access to a Data Recovery Disaster team that is also easy to work with and effective while being affordable, too.
