Transporting sensitive company assets is at the top of the list of priorities during an office relocation. Before you jump into planning the move read on for what you need to know.
What Are the Threats?
When your office relocates is the time when your sensitive information is most vulnerable. The biggest threats include:
- Loss of information and data
- Theft
- An emergency that requires abandoning information and equipment
- Internal or external cyber attack
Ensuring Secure Transportation
Do you know the history and reputation of your commercial moving company? The first step to ensuring security when transporting sensitive information is doing your due diligence with your moving professionals. Are they bonded and insured? Do they have a good reputation? Are they willing to provide recommendations? These are all essential things to check before hiring a company.
Providing Electronic Moving Services
With so much of a company’s sensitive assets contained in the cloud and inside its electronics, it’s critical to hire a company that knows how to handle transporting sensitive electronics. Be sure they offer secure packing and crating systems that provide physical protection to prevent damage to the equipment and security to prevent theft or loss. And they must provide a detailed packing list for every item in your inventory, from tablets to servers.
