Whether they realize it or not, all businesses have a door to the digital world.  Not every organization conducts business through digital channels, but all operate with technology and processes in the internet era.  The looming question for businesses is whether their door to the digital world is secured, left unlocked, or worse yet - swinging open to the outside world.

You might be surprised to realize that technology is a big part of your company culture. It impacts your employee’s ability to work efficiently and get the job done.  If your technology is not helping your employees do their job, then it could be hurting morale.

The Top Tools We Use for Security and Why We Use Them
A Q&A with Connecting Point’s Director of Managed Services Jesse Rosales
The IT security market is saturated with tools to protect against ongoing threats like ransomware and data loss. It’s a lot to sift through, and when companies try to choose their own technologies, it is often based on price.

5 IT Elements to Check to Make Sure You’re Protected
It’s all over the news – ransomware, hacks, threats… but how is your provider protecting you?
