Question:
Tsai advanced technology, inc. (TATI) is a fictional multi-national company providing outsourced financial services to a variety of clients across many industries, including commercial and government entities. TATI specializes in billing and invoicing services, in which TATI receives relevant data from its clients and processes the data to produce the invoices, monthly statements, and other billing items that are sent to TATI's clients' customers. TATI employees serve the company's customers both on-site at customer locations and while working in TATI facilities. TATI employees routinely store data related to multiple clients on their company-issued laptops.
