One of the greatest threats to your systems and networks is a false sense of security resulting in the failure to maintain those systems once they are in place. After spending a considerable amount of time and money on new systems and networks, it is essential to maintain them. Failing to do so would be like purchasing a new car, then never doing any maintenance on it, like oil changes. Unlike a car though, failing to maintain your systems and networks has the added danger of making all of your data and your customers’ data vulnerable to malicious hackers. Even if you get the very latest in technology with the strongest security measures, six months from the completion of the implementation, those security measures will no longer be as secure as they were when you installed them practice management software.

Why Ongoing Maintenance is Needed?

You know why your car needs maintenance; the oil needs to be changed to keep the components running smoothly, the tires need to be rotated, and regular checkups ensure components are not too worn. This is necessary to ensure that your car continues to run without issues – it is a matter of physical safety.
