How American Profit Recovery Protects Your Data

By Kevin:

At American Profit Recovery (APR), protecting sensitive information is a responsibility we take seriously every day. Our clients trust us with important financial and personal information, and we work hard to make sure that data stays safe, secure, and protected.

Data security is built into every part of our business. From the technology we use to the way our employees handle information, APR follows industry best practices and security standards designed to protect our clients and their customers.

Security Built into Our Daily Operations

APR maintains detailed security policies and procedures that govern how information is stored, accessed, shared, and protected. Our security program is built around recognized NIST security standards and includes multiple layers of protection working around the clock to safeguard sensitive information.

Only authorized employees are allowed access to confidential information, and access is limited strictly to what is needed for their job responsibilities. Additional protections such as multi-factor authentication and strong password requirements help prevent unauthorized access.

Protecting Information Through Encryption

APR uses encryption technologies to help protect sensitive information both while it is being transmitted and while it is stored. Portable devices used within our environment are also encrypted and safeguarded to reduce the risk of data exposure if a device is ever lost or stolen.

Continuous Monitoring and Maintenance

Cybersecurity threats are constantly evolving, which is why APR continuously monitors systems for vulnerabilities and security risks. Our IT and security teams have eyes on glass, constantly reviewing alerts, applying critical updates, and maintaining system protections to help keep our environment secure and up to date.

Prepared for Unexpected Events

APR maintains formal incident response, disaster recovery, and business continuity plans to help ensure we can respond quickly and effectively in the event of a security issue or operational disruption. We also regularly test these procedures to verify that our systems and teams are prepared.

Physical Security Matters Too

Protecting information goes beyond technology. APR maintains physical security controls at our facilities, including controlled building access, security badges, video surveillance, visitor management procedures, and secure document destruction processes.

Responsible Data Retention and Disposal

APR follows strict guidelines for how long information is retained and how it is securely destroyed when no longer needed. Secure destruction procedures are used for both physical documents and electronic media to help ensure sensitive information remains protected throughout its lifecycle.

Managing Third-Party Risk

We understand that protecting information also means carefully managing outside vendors and business partners. APR evaluates third-party providers to help ensure they meet appropriate security and data protection standards before sensitive information is shared.

A Commitment to Continuous Improvement

Information security is not a one-time effort — it is an ongoing commitment. APR continuously reviews and improves its security practices to address changing threats, evolving technologies, and industry best practices.

At American Profit Recovery, protecting your data is part of protecting your trust.
