Not to be alarmist about it, but big businesses across the U.S. are under attack by cyber terrorists. Neiman Marcus. Michaels arts & crafts stores. Target. When will it end?
The fact is, hackers are only getting smarter and the technology used in the U.S. has not yet evolved to keep pace. We have faith that it will; it has to. But does that mean in the meantime you should disconnect your cell phone, stop going online, store all your money under your mattress and forget about cloud-based accounting (or cloud anything, for that matter)? That sounds a little ridiculous, doesn’t it? We live in a technology-driven society, and if you’re going to function efficiently, it means taking a certain amount of risk.
Choosing an online accounting service is not easy. You’re putting your trust and your company’s financial future in.
