Hi
*|FNAME|*,
Welcome to
our March newsletter.
This month
we will be exhibiting and also presenting on Cyber Security at
the Hallett Cove Business Associations Digital Expo. It will be
held on Friday March the 19th from 1PM at the Cove Civic Centre.
See below for details of the event and of our talk.
I
hope you weren't caught up in the recent Facebook issues. Facebook
and the Government have come up with a agreement but if you are
still having issues let me know and I can put you on to one of
our partners to help you out.
In tech there
are always new things coming out and one piece of technology we
are keeping a close eye on (especially for our clients in remote
regions or in locations with poor internet) is something called
StarLink. This is Elon
Musk's new company which aims to provide fast and reliable global
internet coverage to all parts of the world. Their satellites
orbit at a lower speed than regular satellites (ie the NBN satellites)
and can provide higher speeds with less latency. If it lives up
to the hype, it will be a game changer for those that can't currently
get good connections. We have signed up for their beta program
and if we get accepted I will post more details. In the meantime
if anyone else has Starlink up and running please let me know.
I’d
always love to talk about your business
and if you would like to catch up please let me know.
Cheers,
David Perkovic

| Security
Tips |
 MFA
or Multi-Factor Authentication is one of the simplest methods
to reduce your chances of being attacked. Check out our blog post
on Why
Multi-Factor Authentication is Important or contact
us to help you out.
Remember,
every business needs to treat cyber-security with the same level
importance as the physical security of their property. Too
many businesses do the digital equivalent of leaving their doors
and windows open.
Contact
us now before it is too late to help close those cyber doors
and windows. |
