BITS Orlando Computer Repair Company Explains How to Shield Your Business From Employees Going Rouge

How much productivity would you lose if your email address was shut down and you had no authority to get it back? How much business would you lose if your company website was taken over and viruses were loaded onto every computer that landed on your site, and you had no authority to pull the site down or remove the virus? As an Orlando Computer Repair Company and an Orlando Computer Store we witness business owners assign the task of establishing their company website, email addresses, and domain name to employees or consultants. Once the website is built and the email addresses are created the owner considers the assigned task to be completed. But there is one important thing that often times gets over looked, which is the transfer of ownership. If the person who created the accounts for your email addresses, website, and domain name does not give you the login information, how will you be able to make changes when that person is gone? The logical answer would be to call and request authority to access the information. But you will be surprised when the representative on the phone tells you that although it is your company you are not listed as the owner so information cannot be released to you and you cannot make any changes to this account. Until you are the owner of the account it belongs to the person who created it. This is how employees going rouge have crippled businesses simply by walking out the door.

As an Orlando Computer Repair Company and an Orlando Computer Store I have had disastrous cases where clients could not gain access to their domain name and were left with the only option of registering a new one. Destroying the ability of clients to find their website or send them email. I have seen employees change the passwords on email boxes eliminating the ability for the company or individual from receiving their email. Lawrence owner of an Orlando, Florida Based Civil Engineering company says “I lost days of communication and had to change all company email address when an employee was terminated”. While providing computer services to small businesses I have witnessed other events also that have cost businesses thousands upon thousands of dollars. This type of rouge behavior can happen to any business owner that does not take ownership of critical login information.
