Data security is easy on a conceptual level: Protect your data while maintaining availability. This means protecting your data from malicious outside forces and restricting access to that data based on user roles. For example, someone in sales does not need access to the HR financial and disciplinary records and vice versa. Also, consider that no protection is perfect or impervious to attacks. To limit the potential damage of authorized and unauthorized people, organizations should look at using a layered approach. This is the only way to ensure optimal data security. Locking down a network is equally as important as educating your users and encrypting data. Read more

And not only that, try to remember a case when the car broke NOT at the moment when you needed it most.
