Falling prey to a cyber-attack must rank high on the nightmare list for every business. So much of what we do is tied up in our blinking boxes of light, that losing access or data can have serious consequences for businesses.
We have exciting news to share We’re Moving!! Don’t worry though, we aren’t moving far.
We’re moving into brand, spanking new offices in Heartlands Business Park, so new in fact, we still can’t find it on Google Maps. We don’t have an exact move in date yet, but we can’t wait, so look out on our social media for our Grand Opening. Well, more low key, a few drinks and some nibbles, can’t mess the new carpets up.
No business is created to steadily stagnate. When you become a business owner, it is because you want to grow. A side effect of growth is that at some point you will become too big for your premises. And that means relocating.
Relocating is fun though. Once you have your office, and you have splashed the corporate colours around the walls, you have your furniture right where you want it. The feng shui is good. If only it were that simple.
Relocation is not as easy as just turning up to a building and plonking your technology in the exact place you want it. There is always something to consider when relocating offices.
Accountancy is one of those industries that seems a little like dark magic to the rest of the world. It’s like they are casting Voodoo enchantments to make numbers do things we didn’t know was possible. It’s little wonder that they are protective of their IT; it contains all their secrets.
Let’s be honest, the IT infrastructure element of your business is probably the most important. It contains all your important business data. You probably have a lot of key processes in your business running on your IT system, and it helps you communicate with suppliers, staff, and customers.
In any cyber-infrastructure, one of the weakest points in security is the password. One of the gravest and most common cybersecurity issues always occurs when a staff member changes or creates a password.
It’s that time of year again. We’re decking our halls with boughs of holly and looking forward to resting like merry gentlemen. After a long season of the “unprecedented”; you can’t blame people for being excited for Christmas.
No matter how large or small your business, maintaining a server is always good practice. While you might not be holding the 1.2million terabytes that Google or Meta hold, you still want your IT infrastructure to run as smoothly as possible.
Server maintenance, then, is always a good skill to have.
It's finally here! Windows 11 is finally available to everyone. Well, everyone with a compatible system that is. The new operating system does mark Microsoft’s final departure with 32-bit operating systems, and of course, to run Windows 11, your computer will need to meet certain specifications.
