Business Success: The Action Connection

Imagine the following scenario; Ten years ago you decided to quit your job and start your own company. For ten years you worked hard, made sacrifices, and it paid off in the end. One of your first employees, a loyal, hard working employee has been by your side the whole way.

Things were going great. Until about eight months ago.

All of a sudden, clients whom you had worked for for years were not returning your calls or e-mails. Then, sales from your online products site started dropping dramatically. One day, out of the blue, that long time devoted employee did not show up for work, nor would they return any calls.

What you did not know was that employee who you trusted with your life had spent the last eight months intercepting / reading all your e-mails, installing monitoring software on your computers to watch everything you do, contacting clients without your permission with the explicit purpose of feeding them false information. The employee was downloading all proprietary code for you online products store, setting up a duplicate site on another server, and taking orders for those products.

In another recent case, an employee of an institute of higher learning was threatening to blackmail the executive staff. They had been notified that any action taken against the individual would result in loss of large amounts of critical data and negative publicity. We were hired to determine the validity of the threat and to collect evidence for possible legal action. What we found was quite disturbing. The suspect employee had installed logic-bombs throughout the organizations network. These logic-bombs required specific action be taken every 48 hours by the suspect employee. If the employee did not perform a specific task within the allotted time, for instance, if he / she had been terminated, the logic-bomb would execute. There was much more to this story and none of it was positive.

How to Choose the Right Computer Training for Accountants
The old image of the accountant might be best illustrated by Bob Cratchit sitting on his stool in the money changing firm of Ebeneezer Scrooge. He sits in front of his massive ledger book painstakingly entering figures with a stubby pencil. This does not reflect the current profession of Accounting. While the principles of Accounting might have remained much the same, the computer has revolutionized the way that the

These are not fictional stories and everyone is equally at risk for such an event. Make sure you have strict controls and guidelines to keep your business safe.

There is a big debate in the truck washing industry currently in whether it is better to go totally automatic with a mechanical robotic truck wash system and equipment or used human labor and hand washing to clean all the trucks.
