Security, from the Inside Out

1. Create a centralized system for detecting and reporting unusual activity that could signal a security breach
2. Maintain backup systems that can be switched on if your main systems are compromised
3. Train all employees on how to prevent compromising of systems
4. Protect your facilities physically so intruders can't just walk in
