Smart Phones: A Growing Concern

By: Chris Marshall

Smart phones are becoming more powerful with every new feature that is released. This is not only attractive to businesses, but also younger generations. As we incorporate smart phones with more sensitive information, it creates a much greater vulnerability to information theft. Securing that sensitive information is often not considered, especially with younger smart phone users. The possibility that your corporate email, personal pictures, or other personal information could easily be stolen greatly increases if you have not taken measures to enhance your smart phone integrity. Regardless of make, iPhone, Android, and even BlackBerry are susceptible to attacks that, unaddressed, could result in the theft of money, information, and even identity.

Shatter I.T.'s SnapShot Service

SnapShot

Have you ever tried to recover from a disaster? Shatter's SnapShot service can restore your system in minutes.

• Fast — Downtime will usually exceed eight hours before a machine can be fully recovered. With SnapShot, your system can be up and running with the push of a button.
• Up To Date — With most disaster recovery services, retained data is outdated — 24 hours old is the norm. Shatter takes a snapshot of your data every 15 minutes, 24/7, so it's always current.
• Reliable — Just running backups will not help you recover from a disaster. Backup tapes sitting on the desk will not save your business. SnapShot will!
• Cutting Edge — SnapShot employs virtualization technology, both onsite and offsite, allowing unbroken continuity and instantaneous recovery of your business if your systems fail for any reason.
• Cost—Effective — There are minimal up-front costs, low bandwidth options, and encrypted VPN's for secure data transfers, all configured by Shatter's Engineers.
