Recently, the Input-Output system was installed at the gas stations, which records in detail the receipts and sales of fuel and updates in real time the computer system of the Ministry. Finance.
In parallel with the obligation to send the data to the GIS, each service station has the obligation to keep unchanged the digital data of the Input-Output system, as well as the data of all documents issued at the service station, for a period of at least ten (10) years.
Any loss of data carries risks of imposing sanctions by the tax authorities, while at the same time it will create a serious problem in the smooth operation of the business.
The risks of data loss are impossible to eliminate (hardware failures, software viruses, operating errors, etc.), while the probability and frequency of their occurrence depends on the structure of the computer system and its operating procedures.
Data Capture:
The registrations that are made daily in the computer system in a gas station include data from:
- pump and tank controller
- Input-Output system
- commercial Gas Station software
- system of the tax mechanism
The operating environment, the different users of the applications, the mandatory 24-hour use of computers by law and the limited specialization of personnel in the security of information systems are the main risks for data loss.
Recognizing the value of computer data for service stations, LOGICOM designed and developed a new service, the Logicom Total Security Package, in order to maximize data security and ensure the ability to quickly and completely restore the computer system in case of failure.
LOGICOM Total Security performs a transparent, for the user and at the same time reliable process of backing up the critical data of the service station in real time.
Every entry of the pump and tank controller, the Input-Output system, the commercial Gas Station software and the tax mechanism system is encrypted and sent securely via the internet to the company’s modern infrastructure, as soon as it is entered into the local database.
The stored data can be accessed only by using the unique password set by the service station owner at the beginning of the procedure, as a result of which it is not guaranteed to be accessed by unauthorized persons.
In order to maximize system security while backing up, Logicom Total Security protects your PC by installing BITDEFENDER’s leading BitDefender GravityZone antivirus software.
This software is considered by experts to be the most effective in terms of computer protection, while at the same time offering the least burden on its operation.
The operation of the protection software is controlled by a central management console, so that the Logicom support department is immediately informed in any case of virus detection and takes the necessary actions to ensure the security and integrity of the service station system.
