Every day you are presented with choices: Soup or salad? Go to the gym or binge watch Netflix? Professional Technology Organization (PTO), IT provider or an internal IT department?
Okay, so the last one isn’t a daily question, but it is a decision every organization needs to make because it affects daily operations.
Start the new year strong by partnering with an expert IT support team to help you strategize for what’s ahead. The right technology is critical to business success, so who you choose to be your IT solutions partner is essential. You need a partner that can take the lessons from the past two years and, with an eye on the future, develop a strategy that works best for your organization.
Recently we stepped in to assist a local nonprofit agency with what many would call a “good problem to have.” They were presented with the opportunity to take over another territory which would double their size. At that time, they employed a small internal IT team with some external consultants.
You need a security IT consultant you can rely on to keep your systems secure. When the holiday season rolls around, the Elf on the Shelf becomes Santa’s partner to keep an eye on everything. The same concept holds true for your network security.
As your team spends time away from the office, do you know who watches your system or how quickly you would get an alert that there was a problem?
Every organization needs someone keeping an eye on their system personally, including end-to-end protection and services.
Online, anyone can pretend to be someone else. Organizations have learned that to protect their network security they need to shift from “Trust that this person is who they say they are, and verify later” to “Verify their identity first, and then trust them.
To be one step ahead of cybercriminals, you need the best network security possible. With IT solutions like secure access service edge (SASE), you’ll benefit from cutting-edge protection against attacks from bad actors.
While SASE is not new, ransomware attacks, the increase in remote work, and the demand for efficiency have contributed to the growth of this new framework of security.
One crack in the wall is enough of an opening for a bad actor to begin hacking away at your network security. Organizations seeking IT solutions against increasing online threats can work with our team at Net-Tech to develop a comprehensive defense plan.
We see this all the time. Too often, organizations get caught up in flashy new technologies and don’t realize it’s a bad investment until it’s too late. Most small to medium size businesses do not have the time or expertise to fully integrate the talent needed to support IT nor do they know whether new technology is going to provide ROI.
As we flip the calendar on a year that has required more pivoting than ever before, the lure of new technology to “fix” what didn’t go right in 2020 can be very strong.
Darrell Powell, CFO of United Way of King County (UWKC), inherited a recurring issue when he stepped into his role: a constant need for IT solutions. The UWKC IT team came to him daily with new problems. With the help of Net-Tech, Powell was able to fundamentally change UWKC’s IT approach.
For decision makers in the property management market space, understanding and mitigating future risk is all part of a day’s work. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) provides the framework for securing these key processes. But interpreting and managing the risk around complicated IT networks is a headache most professionals would rather do without.
