Are you guilty of Configuration Drift?

One thing that creates constant headaches in engineering environments is configuration drift. Two systems start identical, then six months later, one machine has different drivers, missing patches, weird software conflicts, and nobody remembers why. That’s when troubleshooting becomes a nightmare. Golden images and configuration management help standardize those environments so systems stay predictable and easier Read More

The biggest myth in cybersecurity

The biggest myth about cybersecurity, I’m gonna say is that just because you’re doing everything the right way, that you’re not gonna suffer a vulnerability or a cyber attack. Everything that we do today is based on what has already happened. So if you believe that you’re doing everything you can and that nothing can Read More

Daniel is back to expose the weak link in your data security.

A lost laptop should not turn into a data breach, but we still see firms where sensitive client files are sitting unencrypted on local devices, sync folders, or cached documents. That creates a huge problem if hardware gets stolen, lost during travel, or even left behind. Endpoint encryption helps protect that data even if the Read More

Technology Evolves Fast

Technology is growing so fast, not only for us with AI, but the same thing’s happening with the bad guys. They know that there’s security in place. They know that businesses have firewalls. They know that technology is growing significantly to fight them. They know. They look for the vulnerabilities. They, they run the, the Read More

Security Incidents are no small matter for banks and credit unions.

When a security incident happens, logs become incredibly important. The problem is most organizations have logs scattered across firewalls, endpoints, Microsoft365, identity systems, and a dozen other places. Trying to piece that together during an incident is brutal. A properly managed SCIM centralizes those events so you can actually see patterns, investigate faster, and respond Read More

Phony Guarantees and the Real Deal on Risk Management

I’m always amazed that IT companies can guarantee stuff. There’s just no way that anybody can sit down and say to you, “If you do A, B, and C, you’re gonna be just fine.” There is no just fine. All you can do is do the very best that you can do to try and Read More

Mobile devices are a great help in Law Enforcement but opens up security holes

Mobile devices are everywhere in law enforcement now. Patrol vehicles, body cameras, tablets, mobile terminals, and every one of those devices can become a security problem if it’s not managed properly. We’ve seen situations where lost or reassigned devices still had sensitive access or outdated software sitting on them. That’s why mobile device management matters Read More

AI and Hackers. Your strategic playbook!

The interesting thing about AI is, is how good it’s made the people running the attacks. You know, they can bring up a YouTube video, and appear to be that person on the other side saying, “YouTube’s requiring you to do A, B, and C, and, you know, if you’ve got a podcast or something Read More

Remote access risks

A lot of companies still treat remote access like it’s all or nothing. Once somebody connects to the VPN, they basically have access to the entire network. That’s risky, especially for government contractors handling sensitive systems and controlled information. Zero Trust access changes that model completely. Instead of opening the whole network, users only get Read More

Tony is back to expose the risks to your data that are all around you

When you plug that machine into a wall, it’s plugged into the world. It doesn’t matter if you’re sitting at home or if it’s your business, we’re all in the same boat. Most of the attacks, they don’t know who you are. They don’t know that you’re not a financial institution. Let’s say one of Read More
