Security for your business
Word Count: 274If you are a business owner, especially one that deals with sums of money, you should check out . Most of the self run businesses out there are run by truly honest people. The sad thing is though that there are a few dishonest people out there who ruin it for the rest of us. Right now, if you were to get into a legal dispute about the time something was posted on your server or website, your own records would probably not hold up in the court of law because it is possible to edit the timestamps to show incorrect data. Even large, reputable companies are being affected by this problem. American Express was even denied to use their electronic records as true evidence because there was no proof that they hadn’t gone back and edited the data after the fact.. in consequence, they ended up losing that legal battle. No matter how well known you are, the judges probably won’t trust the timestamps from your site or business. However, there is a good side to this story.
Proof Space’s Proof Mark uses something called Transient Key Cryptography. This new technology can prove if the data was tampered with and when it was last edited. By using this technology to validate your electronic records, those records will then be likely to hold up in court, which could save you TONS of money and time in the future. On the other hand, using Proof Mark can also protect you from internal corruption by letting you know if any of your data was tampered with.
Sounds like a good thing from any way you look at it!
