There are several items that you need to be aware of including; the acceptance of cookies and your privacy policy, your contact page, the prevention of spam and CAPTCHA’s, the need for an SSL Certificate, and how to grow a marketing database whilst complying with the General Data Protection Regulation. Red Dragon I.T. can advise on all of these matters and ensure your website security meets the grade.

Privacy & Cookie Policies

Any business that handles personal data needs to ensure its ‘data subjects’ have access to an easy to understand Privacy Policy which should clearly explain;

  • the reasons why you collect personal data
  • how you use personal data
  • how you store personal data
  • and the retention period of personal data

Red Dragon I.T. will write a bespoke Privacy Policy for your business that will also outline the rights of the ‘data subject’ and advise them how to access, amend or erase their data. Included is a Cookie Policy that will be bespoke to your website.

Data Recovery & Data Back-up

Data Recovery

Loosing data can be incredibly damaging for any business. Red Dragon I.T. specialise in data recovery, from any device or platform, and of any size. We can provide a report and file list, along with a no-obligation free quote to safely recovery your data. And to prevent further damage we can provide both onsite and offsite data back-up to prevent further data loses.

Onsite Data Back-Up

We can advise, support and delivery with your onsite data back-up plan. Whether stored to a NAS Box, a server or simply diverted to an alternate location on your business premises, we can make the necessary arrangements to ensure you have access to your data in the event of accidental deletion, corruption or through loss from external attack or virus.

Offsite Data Back-Up

It is also essential that your data is backed-up and stored securely away from the business premises to aid recovery in the event of fire, flood or theft. With our off-site ‘Remote Data Back-Up’ service you can sit back and relax in the knowledge that everyday we will encrypt all your data at source, before connecting it to and storing it on our securely located server. Our service saves the laborious task of backing up data through the swapping of external hard drives, which undoubtedly end up being stored unsecurely.

Cost: prices starting from £1 per day for up to 50MB of data with additional increments depending on the amount of data requiring storage.

Anti-Virus & Firewalls

Anti-Virus Protection

A primary source of infection to both computers and laptops is via email attachments, illegal software and infected files from the internet. Red Dragon I.T. recommends BitDefender which provides the highest level of anti-virus protection. The software includes; intelligent anti-virus, blocks all e-threats, multiple layers of ransomware protection to keep your files safe from encryption, website attack prevention, online banking protection, anti-phishing and anti-fraud prevention.

Cost: £3.00 per PC / laptop / server per month +VAT

Firewalls

Designed to limit unauthorised access and external attacks to your computer network, we can advise and design a firewall that meets the needs of your business. For ultimate control over your network we can supply a firewall that will analyse all the data entering and exiting your network, and one that has the ability to prevent access to chosen websites, which is perfect for organisations such as those in the education sector.
