Your business needs to rely on immediate and constantly available data, especially those who work in heavily regulated industries. The types of business data critical to your operations include tax information, sales records, customer databases, supplier contracts, accounts payable and receivable, intellectual properties, and much more. It’s common for many employees to back up their data in one place, such as USB drives, CDs, and external hard drives. Worse, some may even rely on their computer hard drive as a sole source of storage. Unfortunately, some methods of storage and backup are faulty and are vulnerable to these common causes of business data loss. Read more here: http://bit.ly/1GzGU7K
As the technology landscape becomes more complex, cybercriminals have and will continue to develop software that will search for vulnerabilities in any business’s network. Once these breaches in security are found, they can use your network to steal information, exploit targets for money, distribute spam to other networks, and promote their own agenda.

Many companies today are no longer content to conduct business in their immediate geographical region. Many are expanding into different global markets, either by having an employee work from their home in another city to opening an entire branch office. Furthermore, they are accessing their information at the coffee shop, hotel, or at the airport.
However, when workers use the public Wi-Fi signal, their devices are vulnerable to attacks, such as fake wireless access points and cookie theft. As covered in a previous blog, “Hacker Tricks: How You Can Protect Yourself,” hackers steal confidential data, scrape login information, take credit card numbers, install malware, and even take over your device. A Virtual Private Network can prevent many of these problems.
If your business operates on Windows computers, be on the lookout. Cybercriminals created malicious computer software, called CryptoLocker, which can invade your computer, encrypt your data, and then demand you pay a ransom. Afterwards, you have roughly 72 hours to pay the ransom of at least $200 in bitcoins. If you don’t pay the ransom on time, the price can go up to $2,000. Or don’t pay and lose your data forever, which likely won’t be an option if CryptoLocker encrypted files critical to operating your business, such as legal documents, payroll forms, and customer information.
Data migration to the cloud allowed companies to save money by buying only the storage capacity they need, leaving the ongoing maintenance to a third party, and reducing the need for physical storage facilities.
However, companies must be aware of the following situations that will increase the risk of a cloud data breach. Learn more here: http://bit.ly/1mcHGSP
If your computer uses the Windows XP operating system, pay close attention: Microsoft will be ending support for Windows XP on April 8, 2014. Many workers believe Windows XP works just fine, since 1 in 5 people still use the operating system. After all, the failure of the Windows Vista operating system, launched in 2006, with its security and incompatibility issues, reinforced the view of sticking with the tried and true XP. However, the upgrade to a supported operating system, such as Windows 7 or 8, is very necessary for maintaining the security of company computing environments.
Whenever a form of technology is developed, there’s a new opportunity cybercriminals to use hacker tricks take advantage of their users. Everyday, millions of devious cybercriminals look for different methods for exploiting security vulnerabilities in a business network so they can steal data, extort money from victims, send spam, and promote their view point. Here’s an overview of hacker tricks used to access your network and devices. Learn more here: http://bit.ly/1CeKjHO
We offered advice for monitoring employee computer use. However, you should not forget about the risks to your business inside your office walls. The threats can come from thieves, attackers, competitors, and even your own employees. According to a 2007 American Management Association survey, 48% of companies use video monitoring to prevent theft, violence, and sabotage. Also, the US Department of Commerce notes that employee theft contributes to 30% of business failures. Consider protecting your business with video surveillance.

Employees around the globe are working from home full-time during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many are turning to programs like Zoom to meet online. However, cybercriminals see this trend as a new opportunity to attack people for profit. Therefore, you must protect these platforms so your company is safe from costly and embarrassing breaches. Read more here: https://swifttechsolutions.com/swifttech-blog/cloud-computing/protect-your-video-meetings/
The COVID-19 pandemic created a worldwide panic. To cybercriminals, this presents an opportunity to steal money, data, and identities. The scammers can manipulate people’s emotions to get them to act against their interests. Read more here: https://swifttechsolutions.com/swifttech-blog/cybersecurity/watch-out-for-covid-19-scams/
Whenever you register for services over the internet, such as banking or insurance, websites will require you to create a password. These passwords provide a layer of protection for your confidential information. A number of websites will have various criteria for making a password, such as adding capitalized letters and special characters. A few may even require you to change your password after a specific length of time. Should you have too many incorrect login tries, some websites will lock you out of your account.
Numerous professionals these days aren't just doing their work in the office, but at home and while on the move. You should be prepared to stay in communications with work colleagues, clients, and service providers continuously. As mentioned in SoftwareAdvice.com, 75% of small business workers use a personal cell phone for work. Any missed calls can result in client dissatisfaction and loss of would-be customers to competitors. Unified Communications delivers a simpler way for you to get in touch with your contacts by enabling you to access your voice, email, instant messaging, fax, and conferencing systems in a single platform. For instance, you can check your work email from your own cell phone or use your laptop computer to make a conference call.
Many news organizations make a sizable profit on renting out virtual ad space on their websites. This ad space is usually rented out to third party ad networks, such as Google, Yahoo, and Microsoft. However, cybercriminals are now inserting malicious code into online advertising to infect unsuspecting website visitors. Unlike malicious advertising of the past, the ads don't need to be clicked on, but simply shown to the visitor. From there, the visitor will find his/her computer is infected with spyware and/or ransomware. These types of malware can slow down devices, record keystrokes, and encrypt files.
You may have heard the buzz surrounding the Internet of Things (IoT). The general definition of the Internet of Things is to give any device the ability to connect to the internet. Then, the device exchanges data to its associated cloud software, then analyzes the information necessary to carry out your desired functions. Most Internet of Things devices function using sensors, wireless connectivity, and data analytics software.
Time wasting websites can bring hidden dangers that can hurt the livelihood of your company. A web filter can prevent your employees from going on those time wasting websites. The filter will screen an incoming web page, and then determine if that page should be shown to the employee.
A Network Operations Center monitors the operation of hardware devices, software operating systems and applications. They also ensure IT services stay up and running and respond proactively to problems that may arise.
Co-location services provide hosting of an organization's server and storage in a data center facility. A data center stores IT assets in a high security environment to ensure availability around the clock.
Traditionally, an organization’s IT infrastructure is housed in a data center. However, buying servers, storage, and networking devices can incur large initial hardware costs, not to mention ongoing IT staffing, rent, and power bill costs. In addition, outdated hardware and the resulting inability to take advantage of the latest technology can cause you to fall behind your competitors. Consider virtualizing these computing resources over the internet with SwiftTech’s Infrastructure as a Service.
In the past, technology implementation was a lower priority project tacked on after other business projects were complete. Today, businesses can use technology to run a more profitable and competitive business. They can strengthen product development, gather customer insight, increase worker efficiency, and much more. With thorough research and planning, business technology projects can reinforce the vision, mission, values, and goals of an organization. Consider creating a business technology strategy.
Manufacturers must meet customer expectations by keeping up with demand quickly and at a low cost. This requires streamlining processes from production to consumption, monitoring market changes, and maintaining a strong relationship with their customer base. SwiftTech Solutions will help your manufacturing company with choosing enterprise software, optimize equipment health, and moving existing work processes to the cloud.
Property Management employees are entrusted with a number of responsibilities on a limited budget: collecting rent, fielding landlord and tenant requests, applicant background checks, maintaining the property, dealing with permit requirements, paying taxes, and staying current with industry-standard certifications. However, landlord/tenant challenges such as evictions, late payments, complaints, unauthorized property alterations, and public nuisances must be documented closely, since they could possibly lead to lawsuits. SwiftTech Solutions can help your property managers with selecting property management software, remote desktops, archiving inbound and outbound emails, and setting up web portals for tenant/landlord communications.
The real estate transaction process can be complicated process to complete, since a considerable amount of interchangeable third parties are working together. Plus, the buyer and seller must be able to trust their escrow company with their funds, documents, and instructions. Any missing documents, miscommunications, data breaches, and interruptions in accessing accounts can result in failures in title transfers. SwiftTech Solutions will help your escrow company strengthen work processes by selecting escrow management applications, set up email faxing and archiving, deploy Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policies, and much more.
Workers in this industry must communicate quickly and accurately with warehousing, assembly, and transportation. However, they typically encounter delays with processing paperwork, finding inventory, and return processes. SwiftTech Solutions can improve your logistics work process by selecting handheld devices for mobile workers, digitizing the paperwork process for cloud based applications, setting up a monitoring and alerts system, and more.
Non-profit organizations are obligated to cut costs and increase effectiveness in numerous areas, including technology. The savings can go towards achieving their missions, such as preserving natural resources, bringing awareness to a disease, or feeding the hungry. SwiftTech Solutions can consult with you to help your non-profit select budget saving technologies, such as volunteer, donor, and project management software.
Law office employees need to do more during the day, access information quickly, and be able to meet with colleagues from anywhere. Unfortunately, the industry relies on paperwork processes heavily, which can make a search for a single document an hours-long headache. Any delays in these processes could result in a filing, merger, or acquisition not going through. Plus, a failure to secure documents properly can result in fines. SwiftTech Solutions can help you set up access to your applications on your mobile devices, online conferencing systems, expandable and protected data storage, secure network accessing policies, and more.
Government employees are constantly pressured to trim their budget, thanks to financial debt and slow growth. At the same time, they need get the maximum return on their existing investments. In order to make their goals a reality, these government workers must be able to access critical information, collaborate with workers in different locations, protect critical data, and respond to changes quickly. SwiftTech Solutions can help your agency maximize ROI by virtualizing in-house applications, set up remote desktops, optimizing communications channels to other branches, and more.
As the technology advances, cybercriminals have and will continue to create virus and malware that will exploit vulnerabilities in any business network. Once security holes are found and computers are infected, hackers can steal your information, destroy your data, take over your computer, and track your online activities. These attacks can result in slowed work processes, lost work time, increased risk of identity theft, and possibly a ruined business reputation.
As employees are bringing their work home and on the go, they’ve started using consumer style cloud services, such as Dropbox, to store files for easy later access. While this service is convenient, it is not highly secure and encrypted solution, which can lead to leaked, stolen, or destroyed data. This can be very problematic if the industries you work in are subject to regulatory requirements, such as in healthcare or accounting. Fortunately, your staffers can get the convenience of anywhere file management combined with powerful security.
