delivers more value to the business than ever

QuickBooks using Microsoft Outlook
- Allow your accountant to
review data and make changes while you work
- View unbilled time and

Working From Anywhere Isn't Just A Perk.
It's a Financial Necessity.
Enabling users to work from home or
other locations is no longer simply
about
conserving on office resources, or
allowing a parent to stay with a sick
child on occasion. It has become a real
economic issue. The price of gasoline,
and the resultant increases in the cost
of food and other household items, has
made the ability to avoid traveling an
economic imperative for some. The choice
is rapidly being removed from the
equation, and employers are beginning to
realize that they must accommodate their
users or lose key workers.

Green is Good.
 InsynQ
services combine computing resources in the
data center, increasing the processing power
for our clients while using less equipment
for the task. And InsynQ services promote
the use of thin client technologies, scaling
down the equipment requirements for clients
and subscribers. Less equipment means less
heat generated and less power consumed.
InsynQ
services promote the concepts of working
from anywhere at any time. Remote
capability and virtualized systems often
means less travel is required to bring users
together, saving time as well as fuel.
InsynQ
services promote paperless (or "less paper")
systems, encouraging subscribers to view
documents on screen rather than in print.
This saves power, printer consumables, and
paper.

 Is
your data secure?
How do you know?
Michael Ehart on Security
Visit Michael's HIPAA Blog:
ComplyWithMe
Here is yet another example of data exposed
by carelessness and a simple error, and not
noticed or reported for quite a long time.
From the San Francisco Chronicle:
Information on thousands of UCSF patients
was accessible on the Internet for more than
three months last year, a possible violation
of federal privacy regulations that might
have exposed the patients to medical
identity theft, The Chronicle has learned.
The information accessible online included
names and addresses of patients along with
names of the departments where medical care
was provided. Some patient medical record
numbers and the names of the patients'
physicians also were available online.
The breach was discovered Oct. 9, but the
medical institution did not send out
notification letters to the 6,313 affected
patients until early April, nearly six
months later.
Over 6000 patients' information exposed on
the internet for over 3 months! The sad and
sorry part is not that the persons effected
weren't then notified when it was caught---
that part is simply crummy behavior, and as
heinous as that is, it is out of our scope.
The real issue is that learning that you are
exposed is often times way too late. In this
case it was a careless data-mining company,
which should have been under a Business
Associate's agreement under the HIPAA rules,
and been monitored by the Hospital's
compliance officer.
Doing a vanity search on Google and finding
your own medical records must be quite a
shock. Imagine having one of your customers
find something like that... something like,
say last year's quarterlies conveniently
displayed for the world to peruse.
So is there a bullet-proof way of making
certain that your stuff stays secure? Not
really, but there are a number of ways you
can protect yourself. For big companies the
options are legion, but for smaller
companies one of the best is to consolidate
your data so that access is generally made
through a single source. Online hosting
ensures that professional and vigilant care
is taken of your data. Like the common cold,
there is no cure for idiocy, but knowing
that your information is in the hands of
people who make it their business to keep it
safe, secure, and accessible to only the
right people is priceless.
