Security Control

The Security Control is needed to ensure secrecy of financial data, which is very important for every organisation. In case of computerized accounting the matter becomes all the most important, since, in an office the computer system is accessed by people of all hierarchy of staff. As a result this makes the data stored in the computer open to all, if no measures have been taken to restrict such free access.
