Blog / Are you important enough to get hacked? There’s an interesting misconception out there—a myth, if you will—that your organization is too small and unimportant to be worth hacking or being held to a ransomware demand. It’s comforting to believe, for any reason, that your organization won’t suffer an attack. It may not be true, but it’s comforting. I think this belief comes […] October 12, 2021
Blog / Organizational Change Management vs Technological (Pt. 2) Organization Change Management Concept As we all know, change is one of those few truly inevitable aspects of our lives. Regardless of whether you embrace the steady streams of new features in app updates or resent them for changing your app up just as you got used to it, the fact is change waits for no one. Nowhere is […] October 07, 2021
Blog / Watering Hole Attacks: What they are and how to avoid them Watering hole attacks represented by a do not drink sign I’ve talked about many different kinds of attacks over the course of this newsletter. Ransomware gets a lot of attention (since it’s such a common attack), but I’ve also talked about phishing, social engineering, cross-site scripting and other types of attacks. It’s important to understand the vocabulary of computer security if you don’t want to […] October 05, 2021
Blog / IT support desks vs help desks: What’s the Difference? IT Support Desks represented by pink keyboard keys spelling help No one needs to be reminded that computers are central to our lives these days, but they’re such complex devices that most users don’t fully understand how they work. Nor do they need to. Computers need to be reliable without everyone understanding their minutia for our modern world to run. That’s the entire point of […] October 04, 2021
Blog / Have you heard of a thing called smishing? Person opening a smishing message on their phone One thing you should understand about computer people is that we love to give things funny or clever names, and we love our acronyms. Computer hardware storage sizes are a great example. It’s all about bits and bytes (and there’s even an old out-of-use term known as a nibble). These are real terms that I’m […] September 28, 2021
Blog / Clarifying Change Management For Businesses (Pt. 1) Two arrows pointed opposite ways, demonstrating the concept of change management. As many have noted over the years, change is inevitable. That doesn’t mean it’s good or bad, just that there’s not a lot we can do to stop it. So rather than resisting change, many businesses embrace it. Oftentimes change can bring about more efficient processes, improved customer service, higher satisfaction, and ultimately better overall […] September 23, 2021
Blog / Email Security Is More Important Than Ever Padlock and envelopes concept of email security Email is an amazing tool that just about everyone is at least partly familiar with. Every day, millions of emails are sent across the globe. But that’s not even the most amazing thing about it. The truly incredible thing about email is its complete and utter lack of built-in security. That’s right. When you boil […] September 21, 2021
Blog / An introduction to IT infrastructure and its components IT infrastructure components as jigsaw puzzle pieces Information technology, like anything else, requires the appropriate foundation on which to run. Just like cars need roads and cities need sewers, IT needs physical components in order to operate effectively. Unlike car and cities, though, information technology also requires a fair number of intangible components as well. As regular readers of our newsletter may […] September 20, 2021
Blog / Computer Security Basics Are Always Evolving Business man upgrading computer security practices What’s considered common sense in computer security is always changing. In fact, if I had to describe the world of computer security in one word, it would be ‘volatile’. Unfortunately too many people think this just means the bad guys are constantly evolving their tactics. Too often they forget that, in this context, volatility also […] September 14, 2021
