To Catch a Thief: Protecting Backup Media

Most people dismiss the thought of server theft because the very idea seems ridiculous, but let's think of what it would take for someone to break into one of your customer's buildings—or yours—and steal confidential information.

First, they’d need to talk their way past the front desk and move down the halls to the server room. Then they'd need to disconnect the server and try to walk nonchalantly past staff, hoping no one notices that the office server is down, let alone that there is a stranger walking down the hall with a server tucked beneath his or her arm.

Not very likely, right?

Wrong. If you think you're out of the range of server theft, think again. It happens every day. In fact, it happens so often that many states have passed laws making it a crime to conceal data theft from the public.

So now, let's think like a real thief.

Most data thieves take the simple route when staking out a business. Instead of sneaking around buildings to steal confidential data, they’ll simply stake out its personnel, like the office manager who takes the backup tape home or the IT professional who thinks he's keeping his confidential data safer in his trunk than in the office. Maybe the IT professional pops into the supermarket after work to pick up a few things, leaving a very easy backseat target, or maybe the office manager's home gets broken into over the weekend while he or she was away.

No matter how it happens, the data is gone, leaving their company wide open to potential liability, bad press, and losses that range from minute to catastrophic, depending on the type and amount of information stolen. In that light, it's never really a good idea to move confidential information out of the building—and now, your customers don't have to.

Carroll-Net's Healthy Server™ with built-in LoJack® Theft Recovery offers foolproof protection from prying eyes and hands. If a server is ever stolen, law enforcement will track it right to where a thief has taken it, regardless of whether the he or she tries to disassemble the server.
