Office break-ins happen, and even in this day and age, they aren’t always digital. Sometimes people physically break in to an office, shattered windows and all. While you can\u2019t do anything to prevent these kinds of break-ins, you can at least protect what\u2019s most valuable in case someone does try to take it from you.<\/p>\n

Have Quality Insurance<\/strong><\/p>\n

Insurance is incredibly valuable, and since it\u2019s so valuable, it\u2019s important to shop around for exactly what you\u2019re looking for. Insurance will not only provide peace of mind, but it will take the load off when you have to replace anything that was stolen. Make sure the insurance policy you get has reasonable replacement values, and that it covers items that are stolen in transit or even from your team\u2019s personal residences.<\/p>\n

Engrave or Microdot Everything<\/strong><\/p>\n

If an item has your name plastered all over it, not only does it make the item harder to trade, but it also lowers its resale value significantly when the criminals try to get cash for your office items. Microdotting can be done to cars and computers alike, and it\u2019s very inexpensive if you choose to do it yourself.<\/p>\n

Have Appropriate Alarms and Surveillance<\/strong><\/p>\n

While nothing will guarantee that people won\u2019t decide to steal from you, alarms and cameras will at least discourage people from choosing you as their next victim. Don\u2019t be shy, either \u2013 show off that you\u2019re protected, and proudly display any signs that are provided to you by your alarm company. Simple lighting and staff alarm code numbers will further deter anyone considering breaking in.<\/p>\n

And Finally \u2013 Back Everything Up<\/strong><\/p>\n

You should already have your data backed up daily, if not more often. Disaster recovery is easier when you have dependable off-site backups of all of your data, especially if a criminal decides to take every piece of equipment they possibly can.<\/p>\n

Remember, you can\u2019t prevent a break-in \u2013 but you can certainly make it as difficult as possible so that your data and your supplies are safe and sound.<\/p>\n
