Cybersecurity – An Ongoing Process, not a One-Time Fix
Cybersecurity is a critical component in any organization, large or small. The increasing frequency and evolving nature of threats means that simply installing antivirus software or setting up a firewall isn’t enough. Security is an ongoing process that requires constant vigilance, regular updates, and proactive measures. As a Managed Service Provider (MSP), Nessit understands the complexities of maintaining robust cybersecurity and is dedicated to safeguarding your business.
5 Common Questions to Ask Managed IT Service Providers (MSPs)
The Nessit team had the pleasure of attending the Small Business Expo in Miami recently, where we got to meet and talk with lots of business owners about all things IT. Here are the top questions we heard from small business owners, and our answers!
In The Know: Florida Cybersecurity Incident Immunity Act
Designing a cybersecurity program is complex, and expecting everyone within your organization to follow complicated policies is bound to fail. As with most things, simpler is better. At Nessit, experience has taught us that easy-to-understand cybersecurity policies are the most effective, and as cyber threats become more sophisticated, protecting sensitive data has never been more critical.
How Nessit helped a New Hampshire Engineering Firm Save $200,000 a Year on IT Costs and Increase Productivity
When a Portsmouth, NH engineering firm approached us in late 2022, they had 50 employees and were spending roughly $500,000 annually on their IT. Their work required a very specific approach to IT systems, and we knew that to come up with a solution we had to ask the right questions and get creative.
Fully Managed or Co-Managed IT Services: What’s Right for Your Business?
Achieving peak performance from your IT systems means more than just investing in the latest technology or services. Forward-thinking companies recognize the importance of having a future-proof IT strategy in place, and both co-managed and fully managed IT services can provide an effective solution for your business.
How is the Dark Web a Threat to Your Business?
Your business relies on digital technology, and as cyberthreats evolve and become more advanced, protecting your data with proactive, robust security measures has never been more important. A data breach can have a catastrophic effect on your company’s finances, productivity, and reputation, and may involve legal repercussions if industry regulations have been violated. Many of the threats businesses need to guard against originate in the internet realm known as the “Dark Web,” a breeding ground for criminal activity and a marketplace for stolen data.
Benefits of Managed IT for Architecture Firms
Architectural firms have unique IT needs, and rely on specialized software and applications, large data storage, and seamless connectivity. Employees working in-office and remotely need to be able to access, share, and collaborate on files, blueprints, schematics, and 3D models. Managing your network infrastructure can be a time-consuming and complex task, and unforeseen IT issues can have serious consequences in terms of diminished productivity, disrupted deadlines, data loss, and compromised security.
Elevating Your Business with Managed IT Services: Why It’s The Best Option
In this technology-driven landscape, businesses rely on their IT infrastructure to function efficiently and effectively. Organizations large and small face the same complex challenge: how best to maintain IT infrastructure, ensure security, and stay on top of technology trends. The decision comes down to two options: in-house IT teams or managed IT services.
How Your Business Can Be Prepared For Cybersecurity Attacks, Big and Small
As cyberattacks become increasingly sophisticated, it’s more important than ever to safeguard your digital front lines. Any business, no matter how small, is a potential target for hackers. In fact, smaller businesses are often less invested in security, and therefore more vulnerable.
How to Revive Your Neglected IT Strategy and Get Back On Track
A well thought out IT strategy can be a game-changer, propelling your business to new heights. Conversely, neglecting your IT systems for too long can be a costly mistake, leading to a host of problems, from security vulnerabilities to operational inefficiencies. The good news is that it’s never too late to turn things around.
