Who's to blame for Irish Businesses failing because their data was not protected?

May 6, 2010 - PRLog -- In an announcement today, Andy Tierney of Tierney Office Automation warned businesses in Ireland to take the correct preventative measures to ensure that all their information in the company is backed up.

"We see it all too often. Blatant disregard for probably one of the most important assests that a business has - its information. We all know the cost of growing a business, of acquiring customers, of communicating with customers, of collecting money from customer. What if we started the day with nothing?" said Andy as they launched their suite of back up solutions for Irish Businesses today.

"A business in Ireland that had accounts receivable of 650k recently lost their information. This meant that they did not know who owed them the money and how much people owed them. They are completely at the mercy of their debtors - not a nice place to be in 2010" added Andy

Tierneys Office Automation claim that a company can provide a comprehensive backup solution for their business for a very low investment and the level of resilience can be altered to reflect the importance of the data.

"We have to understand the nature of the data, the data protection act, encryption of data, storage locations of data. That's our job, our customers just need to know that their data is secure, backed up and available if they need it.

We carry out a Data Backup Analysis of our clients business and present them with a solution that best meets their requirements. The good thing about technology is that there is a solution of all business. Its a shame that so few businesses in Ireland place any importance on this type of activity.

"Ask a business owner that has lost their data and the perspective changes immediately" - finished Andy
