EMPLOYEE INVESTIGATION
Every business needs a comprehensive plan for protecting the data and identity of its employees. Not only should your company maintain active policies for information that is non-public, it needs to take an active role to insure protection of that data. Social security numbers, birth dates, addresses of employees and even cell phone numbers are areas of a potential breach of information leaks. The plan should also implement new hire investigations for new employees during the pre hire stage as well as drug screening.
When hiring a new individual, one of the fundamental issues that needs to be addressed is criminal activity of new hires. Our National Criminal Background Check is a comprehensive criminal check showing felonies, misdemeanors, sex offenses and more at the state and county levels. Knowing this information allows you to make the necessary decisions to consider the individual or to avoid a bad situation that could occur with the wrong individual.
Our background services cost $19.95 and includes access to our entire database of criminal records. Most of our competitors charge $19.95 for access to a single state only -- read the fine print. E-mail copies, online archiving, and receipts for expense purposes are included free. We offer the fastest ordering process, especially if you need to run several background checks at once. Our criminal background checks are FCRA compliant for employment screening and tenant screening, including a consumer dispute mechanism. Many sites have misleading claims regarding FCRA compliance, creating serious legal risks for employers who use them. Often business owners and managers do not take into consideration the soft assets that are "under-the-roof" of its business. Access to that information sometimes has more value than the hard assets that are within a business. Access to all areas of a business by every employee does not guard the owners from the harsh financial penalties should a breach occur. Exposing this information to rouge employees or office cleaning personnel that may not have a clean police record places the company at risk and restriction to that data becomes critical. Keeping audit records and access times to certain areas or individuals puts an additional layer of protection to insure compliance standards.
If you accept credit cards, you should have heard about PCI Compliance standards and it is necessary that you guard that information from a leak. This standard is enforced by the Payment Card Industry and to meet PCI Compliant Standards and the current requirements, your business must have in place the necessary standards that protects your customer's credit card data and someone with a criminal record handling that data could put you at risk.
With the new FTC regulations and the associated steep fines associated with Work Place Identity Theft and the new PCI Compliance regulations that have taken effect, it becomes necessary for managers and business owners to not only understand the requirements but also put into place the necessary steps for protect your business from information leaks. Protecting you, your business and your home and both hard and soft assets is our specialty and our primary objective.
BACR business customers of Rottweiler Security are offered one free background investigation per year as a BACR member.
DOOR ACCESS
Access to credit card data locations in a business needs to have access controlled. Access should only be granted to allow those individuals with rights to enter those areas. Unlike keys that can easily be copied during a lunch break, or codes that can be seen from other employees, HID cards can not be copied. Each card has its own encrypted key that is associated with an employee. If an employee loses their keys or they are stolen, control is easy to maintain. Other areas that need to be considered are:
Access to credit card data needs to be restricted to only those you allow. When the system is properly maintained and installed it meets one area of PCI Compliance standards.
- Even single door access to restricted areas is very economical
- Access should be granted to only certain individuals
- An Audit trail of access should be maintained for card data access
- Never loan out access cards to other employees
TERMINAL MONITORING
Placing CCTV cameras over areas that monitor card usage allows for viewing of individuals that might tamper with a terminal. All wiring associated with a terminal needs to be protected to prohibit someone from placing a phishing device behind the terminal on the network.
Keep all terminals from full view of a window and never write down a credit card number unless you shred the documents.
- Monitor each are that card data is received and transmitted.
- Check for unusual activity around a terminal or unusual device.
- Look for and identify any area that might compromise data or data information.
Using CCTV cameras in a work environment also tracks employee activities and it is always a good idea to have a CCTV installed to deter crimes of opportunity. It can also deter against Work Place Identity Theft, another area that you must manage and we can help with setting up restrictions for guarding that information on as well.
FIREWALL PROTECTION
In today's network architecture, it is necessary to block unwanted emails, solicitation of information and phishing messages that are after your employees and card holder information. We install firewall's made by Barracuda Networks that meet PCI Compliance Standards.
A commercial grade Firewall protects your network from unknown applications, probing software that detects pinholes and blocks threats from Internet users. A great rule of thumb is to ask the question, if unsolicited messages can get into your network, then you need a better firewall than you are currently using.
Some software applications that advertise built in firewall's and are bundled with Anti Virus software are usually not PCI Compliant and they also have to be managed with updates. So if the update does not take place, the computer is exposed to a virus attack as well as phishing software. You must also have Anti Virus, which we provide include with our other services.
