Is Your Network Protected?

While there is no doubt that technology continues to improve and improve our lives, it’s not without its issues or threats. What are you doing to make sure your data, information, and networks are protected if disaster strikes?

Think about how any of the following would affect your business:

  • Natural Disaster
  • Power surge or outage
  • Break in

These days, managed IT services are necessary to just about every business. The same way that businesses utilized off-site storage decades ago, managed IT services make sure that your data is backed up and secure even if your physical location and equipment are damaged or compromised.

Additionally, managed IT services provide an extra layer of security to make sure your information is safe from cyber threats. With more and more information available in electronic form, there are additional threats to data that may not have been an issue in the past. Managed IT security measures may include:

-Firewalls

-Password protection

-Limiting availability of sensitive information to only top tier employees

-IP blocking Make sure your company’s important data is protected should the unthinkable happen.

Make sure you’re utilizing managed IT solutions from your office technology partner.
