Secure storage

25 October 2024

Secure storage practices protect sensitive information, ensuring compliance and maintaining trust with clients and stakeholders. Making use of secure storage for data is essential, particularly in today’s digital environment.

Encryption: always encrypt sensitive data. This ensures that even if data is intercepted or accessed without authorisation, it remains unreadable.

Regular backups: perform regular backups of your data and store them in a secure, separate location. This helps in data recovery in case of loss or corruption.

Data minimisation: only store data that is necessary and securely delete data that is no longer needed. This reduces the risk of sensitive information being compromised.

OneDrive: enable PC Folder Backup automatically to sync your Desktop, Documents, and Pictures folders to OneDrive. This ensures your important files are backed up and accessible from any device.
