9 Encryption Means of scrambling data so that it can only be accessed with a password / key Protect the encryption password with extreme diligence Only effective when the machine is off or device is removed

10 Backup Suitability from best to worst: –CD (700MB) / DVD (4.7GB) –External hard disc (500GB) –Web based backup service (2-5GB) –USB memory stick (32GB) –Doing nothing There are potential security & data protection issues with web based services

11 Backup Procedure Always use COPY and not MOVE Verify that you can open backed up files Best to do regular full backups A least termly Backups will not be encrypted Make it easy and save all files in one location e.g. C:\Data

12 Data Protection Data protection applies to printed documents as well as electronic data Schedule 7 of the DPA: –Appropriate technical and organisational measures shall be taken against unauthorised or unlawful processing of personal data and against accidental loss or destruction of, or damage to, personal data.

13 Security Breach Examples Imagine a potential security breach: –Leaving unencrypted data on a USB key –Leaving printed documents on public transport –Losing your phone –Losing your laptop –Disclosing your password

14 Document Handling Data or documents containing personal data must: –Be secured in a locked cabinet or area –Be protected by a strong password –Have access restricted to appropriate personnel only –Be encrypted before transfer –Not be left in plain view –Be destroyed securely

15 Email Never provide personal details in an email or in response to an email request Check the sender – does the address look right? Avoid links in emails Does the email 'ring true'? Look out for URLs ending in.tk.cc.info
