digital security overview
What is Digital Security and why is it important?
Digital Security is the safeguards we put in place to protect our digital assets (Ribble, 2015). Just as we do everywhere else in our lives, we need to understand how to keep our digital information safe and secure from outside threats. This means that we need to understand how attackers will try and obtain our information and how we can stop the attack before it happens. It is like placing an Home security system sign in your front yard and locking your doors at night. The most common crime is one of opportunity so you want to make sure that you are not providing any would be criminals from being able to access your information too easily.

Digital Security and Customer Care Centers
Digital Security is a huge portion of a Customer Care Center. There is simply too much information for there not to be a formal, and heavily enforced, digital security program. In fact, we have an entire team dedicated to digit security. One of the things we do each year is hold training events, in which 100% attendance is mandatory, to discuss our security policies and what to do if one of them are violated. This ensure that we do not end up with a security breach and possible public relations issue on our hands.
