Local Discussions What's happening in the Alexandria business community
A question for business owners and professionals:
How do you know a business safeguard is actually working?
Is it enough that a vendor says it is?
That a dashboard shows green?
That no one has complained?
That there has never been a known incident?
Or should there be some independent way to verify that the control is doing what everyone assumes it is doing?
I think “we have it” and “we know it works” are two very different statements.
What level of proof do you think is reasonable for a small business?
