COVID-19 is forcing many businesses to embrace remote work. The technology needed to enable people to work from home has existed for years, but working from home may be new for you and your employees. Here are some essentials you need to address to empower your remote workers. What technology do you have or need? Your people may have business laptops and phones, or perhaps you already allowed employees to bring their own devices (BYOD) to work. So, remote work isn’t going to be as much of a change. Your people already have the tools they need. However, a business that wasn’t doing any of this before might need new hardware. You can’t expect your employees to lug heavy desktop computers home. You may need to ask employees to use their own personal computers and phones. That’s going to require some ground rules. For one, no Windows 7: that operating system is out of date and no longer supported by Microsoft, which means employees could be putting corporate data at risk of cyberattack. You can also take the following precautions to secure off-site online activity: Establish strict policies for securing devices accessing business networks. Communicate reporting procedures for the loss/theft of a device. Enable mobile monitoring management of all devices that give IT access. Encourage regular backup of mobile devices. Educate employees to regularly update firewall and anti-virus software. Prohibit third-party apps. Set devices to make users aware that they may be connecting to unsafe networks. Challenges of the Remote Work Environment In the office environment, there is business technology consistency. Now, you’re supporting various hardware and networking solutions of different quality. This can be a headache to get up and running, yet you need to support your remote employees. What kind of IT desk help will you offer? People are now working wherever they are, whenever they want. The “wherever they are” part can raise some issues. Employees could log in from public parks, coffee shops (if any are open), or while at home with the kids. This means fresh threats. Laptops can get stolen. People out in the world could look over your employee’s shoulder and read what’s on the screen. Kids can spill juice in a split second! Install remote management software to enable a complete wipe of lost or stolen laptops. Also, implement encryption, data backup, and screen-locking features to help keep data secure. Saying people can work “whenever they want” also has its challenges. With everyone stuck at home, a 9–5 schedule for office productivity may be impossible. Toddlers don’t really understand that “Mommy’s working,” do they? It’s a good idea to establish clear expectations from the outset: How will progress be demonstrated? How can employees check-in with managers? What are the expectations for team collaboration? What software will be used for group chat, video, or conference call? What is acceptable business-hour flexibility? If you’re going to allow people to set their own hours, IT support needs to be flexible, too. Supporting Remote Work The good news is that remote work can be productive, too. In fact, a Stanford University study found remote employees did an extra day’s work per person per week. We can help you set up your technology to support your remote staff. We’ll make sure your hardware is up to scratch, secure those mobile devices, and be your remote IT help desk at odd hours.

Working from home is a big change in an already tumultuous time. Yet there’s a bright side. The quarantine could be your opportunity to reinvent how you work — for the better. Migrating to Microsoft Office 365 has benefits now. Plus, when you’re back to business as usual. Office 365 is the cloud-based version of Microsoft Office. With a subscription, you get both the desktop and online versions of apps you already know. This includes Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, SharePoint, Teams, Yammer, and more. Office 365 enables collaboration in many ways, on desktops, tablets, and smartphones. For example: Outlook — primarily associated with email, but also lets you share notes and files Teams — a hub for instant messaging, video conferencing and calls SharePoint — an internal content management platform. SharePoint lets you customize team sites where you automate workflows and share resources Yammer — a social network connecting all the users in your organization OneDrive — allows users to share and co-author documents securely Working in Microsoft Word, Excel, Powerpoint and other Office Apps you can collaborate simultaneously. There’s no need to email back and forth. In fact, you can even see different people creating and editing together in real-time. Remote Work with Teams Microsoft teams at its core is a chat program. But it does so much more. On all your devices, both iOS and Android, Teams allow “channels”. You can have company-wide or small task group channels. Or use a separate channel to instant messaging to a single person. You can also invite clients or customers into channels to join the discussion. Additionally, you can set up security features that filter what they can access. You don’t want them to know the ingredients to your secret sauce! Within Teams channels, users can share documents, spreadsheets, and presentations. Teams also integrate with other software. The options include Zendesk customer support, Asana project management, or Zoom video conferencing. Using Teams in Office 365 creates a streamlined platform for remote work. Remote Work with OneDrive Working on-premises, your users always had access to the business file server. OneDrive is the cloud equivalent. Yet, since it’s online, it’s always accessible. Microsoft’s hosts the file storage to let you access and share work files from all your devices. Employees can even work offline. Any changes or edits to files automatically upload when you next connect. Share OneDrive folders or files with external partners as well. Again, you can secure access with limits on who can see what and specifying what actions they can take. You can even set up automatic revoke access after a set time limit. Office 365 & Business Security An Office 365 subscription protects from viruses and cybercrime. It also offers ways to recover your files from malicious attacks. Office 365 apps update with security patches without any effort on your part. Plus, Outlook scans email attachments and checks links for viruses or phishing scams. OneDrive helps you restore files, so they're not held captive in a ransomware attack. Office 365 also lets users encrypt email, prevent forwarding, and secure sensitive files. Office 365 lets your business communicate and collaborate in real-time. Work on any device, anywhere, at any time. Enjoy business agility and flexibility with internal and external users. Migrating to the cloud isn’t as simple as pressing the “start” button. Still, our tech experts can get you up and running quickly and with ease.

(Photo Source: Unsplash.com) If you’ve ever had a sudden computer problem, you know it can be very stressful. So much of our day-to-day life requires having access to a working computer. Homework, budgeting, bills, even browsing dinner recipes all have a degree of urgency that means dealing with a broken computer isn’t comfortable for long. Your computer technician offers two options: remote repair or brings it in. Which is the best choice for you? Benefits of Remote Support Speed: If remote repair is a possibility, your technician can connect via the Internet and have you operational in no time. You might also choose to just leave it turned on in the morning and go to work as normal, while the tech logs in to conduct the repair, ready for your return. Without this option, you’d need to juggle time in your diary to drop the system off as most in-store techs only work 9-5. Many large-scale remote support services are even available 24/7, eliminating all unnecessary delays. Convenience: You get to skip the unpleasant tasks of unplugging the PC, untangling the cables and carting it into the repair store. Even then, once repaired, you’d still be privileged with carrying it back home and playing a game of which-plug-goes-where. Computers may be getting smaller, but they’re still heavy and fiddly! Laptops are designed to be moved around often and it may not be a problem to stop at the repair store, but traveling with a desktop PC requires a little more effort and a lot more inconvenience. Negatives of Remote Support Limited repair options: A remote connection can only repair certain software problems, not hardware problems. It’s impossible for the technician to swap out a failed part remotely, and unless you’re confident in your own repair skills, the guided physical repair isn’t viable either. Occasionally the problem will also be outside the computer, perhaps a troublesome peripheral or connection. Your technician may be able to walk you through correcting some of these minor problems yourself, but almost invariably require a physical call-out or taking your computer in-store. Connection speed: A slow or unstable connection will make a remote repair take longer and increase the difficulty of the task. The extended time impacts the cost for the call, and in extreme cases, can negate any benefits of skipping the physical inspection. Your connection needs to allow the technician to see real-time responses as if they were sitting there in person. Accessibility: If your computer won’t start or can’t connect to the Internet at all, your technician can’t log in. This includes seeing a ‘blue screen of death’, boot failure and Windows load failure. As much as they’d like to help you, being able to log in to your system is a vital step in the remote repair process. Remote support and repair is the ideal situation, purely for speed and convenience. As a bonus, in the event the remote repair is unsuccessful, it also means your tech now has a better idea of the problem and can speed up any on-site or in-store repairs.  Remote support is the best option for many repairs and gets your computer working again with minimal disruption and the lowest cost. Need a tech repair? Call us at (786) 233-2002 for rapid remote support.

Worried about the looming end of life deadline for your Microsoft products? The company is ending support for several popular business tools in 2020. This includes Windows 7. It’s a hassle but this change doesn’t have to be a bad thing. Here’s what’s happening and how to take advantage of this opportunity to future proof your computers. For many businesses, it’s a tough parting. As late as September 2018 some 41% of Windows 7 users still hadn’t moved on to the latest operating system. Yet sticking with existing systems until 2020 or beyond could lead to a truly bitter end. And Windows 7, which could be the operating system on your laptops and desktops, isn’t the only one on Microsoft’s DNR list. Are you relying on 2010 Word and Excel? Running Windows Server 2008/R2 or Small Business Server 2011? Does Exchange 2010 control your email and calendars? All of them are reaching or have reached the end of support in 2020. That’s a big deal. Before we talk about why it’s such an issue, let’s make sure we’re all on the same page about what end of life really means. (Photo Source: Unsplash.com) Understanding End of Life Issues What does end of life mean for your business? for some, it may be a dead end. When you first buy a product, Microsoft provides mainstream support such as: ⦁ Offering security patches ⦁ Releasing design changes or new features ⦁ Providing complimentary support ⦁ Warranty claims. Microsoft stopped all but security patches five years after the product’s release. After all, they want to put resources behind the versions they are still selling in stores.  OK, so you might be thinking, we don’t need new features or design, and we’ve never used the warranty. Plus, at this point, we’ve got everything figured out, so we can continue on without Microsoft’s help. Understanding their answers in the forums was a headache anyway! Only in 2020, they’ll also stop the security upgrades that provide patches and bug fixes for the tools you’re using. In June 2018, Microsoft even announced but didn't fix an OS bug. They also stopped answering Windows 7 Community forums. Thinking you haven’t been doing updates, so this won’t make much difference for you? Try again. The updates were probably taking place without you knowing through Microsoft auto-updates. That’s not going to happen anymore. What This Means for Business Without ongoing security support, your business runs the risk of cyberattacks. Your users will keep working to improve processes, sell a product, and increase revenues. Meanwhile, hackers will work just as hard to find weak points they can attack. It’s a little like pest control. Ants, spiders, roaches and other bugs are always looking for a way into your home. What do you do? Try and close any gaps they might use to get in and regularly bug bomb to keep the creepy crawlies at bay. Microsoft was once your pest control service. The company provided the fixes needed to protect your business from cybercriminals. What a Cyber Attack Might Look Like Once inside your network or systems, these cybercriminals can have a pretty painful bite. They might use malicious software (malware) to take over your business computers. They don't return control until you pay a ransom. Or, they might take important data for use in identity theft. Maybe they’ll want to mess with your IT infrastructure and shut you down. Imagine a denial of service attack as a bug infestation that is so constant you are driven from your home. With the boom in cryptocurrencies, some bad actors want to leverage your computers' processing power. You’d eventually notice your computers running slower and skyrocketing utility bills. It’s Not Worth the Risk Cybersecurity attacks are costly. Take 2017's WannaCry attack infecting more than 230,000 computers in 150 countries. The perpetrators demanded $300 ransom per computer. The average data breach costs a company $3.86 million, according to the Ponemon Institute. And the average denial of service attack costs a company $2.5 million. Beyond these hefty price tags, a cyber attack can also put your business at risk of: ⦁ Compliance issues ⦁ Massive fines ⦁ Costly downtime ⦁ Brand reputation damage ⦁ Customers jumping to a competitor. Where does this leave businesses relying on Windows 7 and other legacy products? Let’s consider the options. Preparing Your PCs for 2020 The good news is that you have options. The first one is not so great. Ignoring the risks, you could continue on with your Microsoft products, hope for the best. While you're doing that, malicious actors are looking to exploit that loyalty. A second approach is to pay extra to keep getting security updates from Microsoft. This is paying now to put off what is inevitable. After all, the company is only offering three years of extended, paid support. For example, a Windows 7 Pro User can pay $50 per device for the first year of Extended Security Updates (ESUs). The price doubles in year 2 ($100 per device) and again in year three ($200). That’s a total of $350 per device until the ESUs expire in January 2023, when you’ll be out of luck all over again. Antivirus service providers are offering a third option. Seeing an opportunity, they’ll offer patches and bug fixes for paying customers. The problem is that these companies offer only limited, reactionary support. Plus, they’ll only be in it as long as it proves profitable, so their help could end without warning. Looking long-term and being proactive, you’ll want to go with the upgrade option we discuss next. Future-proofing Your PC Assets Upgrading to the latest versions of Microsoft products is an opportunity. This investment will improve productivity while future-proofing your PCs. For example: ⦁ Windows 10 security updates regularly and has online users' community and technical support. The increased operating speed and improved functionality and usability will drive productivity. ⦁ Upgrading to cloud-based Office 365 can improve collaboration. Users can access email, calendar sharing, and files in real-time from any device, wherever they are.  Why not wait until the end of 2020? Why is it a good idea to begin migration sooner rather than later? Here are our top four reasons. 1. Risk. Data breaches and other cyber threats are costly. 2. Difficulty. Migrating isn’t always easy. (Depending on your IT infrastructure, it could take a lot of work.) 2. Availability. Don't scramble to find partners to support your migration efforts. 4. Flexibility. By upgrading now, you gain the ability to pick a good time for your business to change over its systems. Migrating data to a new system, securely and efficiently, takes work and knowhow. Simple Solution Tech, Managed Service Provider can tackle the upgrade for you. Contact us at (786) 233-2002

Los dueños de negocios hoy saben que Internet no es solo una fuerza para el bien. Algunas personas explotan la Web con malas intenciones. Se congregan en la Dark Web, y las pequeñas empresas necesitan comprender los riesgos. ¿Qué es la web oscura? Usted y sus empleados pasan tiempo diariamente en la Web. Están investigando clientes, revisando competidores y buscando información. No están accediendo a la Dark Web. The Dark Web alberga actividades peligrosas, a menudo ilegales. Esto incluye la venta de drogas en el mercado negro, la venta ilegal de armas de fuego y la pornografía ilícita. No se puede acceder a la colección de sitios web de Dark Web utilizando motores de búsqueda o navegadores estándar. Los usuarios emplean una herramienta de cifrado Tor o I2P para ocultar su identidad y actividad, y falsifican las direcciones IP. Foto por Markus Spiske desde Unsplash Para ingresar a Dark Web, también debe estar utilizando el servicio Tor o I2P. Además, debe saber dónde encontrar el sitio que está buscando. Hay directorios Dark Web, pero no son confiables. Las personas en la Dark Web no quieren que sus víctimas las encuentren. En última instancia, no es un lugar donde usted o sus empleados deben estar. Entonces, ¿por qué necesitas saberlo? Porque los usuarios de Dark Web pueden comprar: nombres de usuario y contraseñas dinero falso números de tarjetas de crédito robadas o credenciales de suscripción software para entrar en las computadoras de las personas datos operativos, financieros o de clientes propiedad intelectual o secretos comerciales La Dark Web también es donde alguien puede contratar a un hacker para atacar sus computadoras. El riesgo comercial de Dark Web: La Web oscura en sí misma no es ilegal, y no todo su tráfico es criminal. También es visitado por periodistas y organismos encargados de hacer cumplir la ley, y se usa en países que prohíben la comunicación abierta. Sin embargo, la cantidad de listados de Dark Web que podrían dañar su negocio está creciendo. Un estudio de investigación de 2019 encontró que el 60% de todos los listados podrían dañar a las empresas, y el número de esos listados de Dark Web ha aumentado en un 20% desde 2016. Los riesgos comerciales de estos listados de Dark Web incluyen: socavando la reputación de la marca pérdida de ventaja competitiva ataque de denegación de servicio o interrupción de malware Robo de propiedad intelectual actividad fraudulenta Con la atención de los medios sobre las violaciones de datos que afectan a millones, es fácil pensar que una pequeña empresa no está en riesgo. Sin embargo, los malos actores no se dirigen a una empresa por su tamaño; buscan facilidad de acceso. La información de la Web oscura es hasta veinte veces más probable que provenga de una violación no reportada. Los especialistas en privacidad dijeron en una conferencia de la Comisión Federal de Comercio que las víctimas incluyeron prácticas médicas, minoristas, distritos escolares, cadenas de restaurantes y otras pequeñas empresas. Reduce tu riesgo: Si su información termina en la Dark Web, hay poco que pueda hacer al respecto. El lado positivo, al menos, es que sabría que la seguridad de su negocio se ha visto comprometida. Sea proactivo en su lugar. Mantenga sus protecciones de seguridad actual e instale parches de seguridad regularmente. Considere un dispositivo de gestión unificada de amenazas (UTM) o un dispositivo UTM. El UTM se conecta a su red para servir como puerta de enlace y proteger su negocio contra malware, acceso ilícito y otros riesgos de seguridad. Su dispositivo de seguridad UTM puede proporcionar: control de aplicaciones escaneo anti-malware URL y filtrado de contenido prevención de pérdida de datos seguridad de correo electrónico gestión de acceso inalámbrico y remoto O deje que un proveedor de servicios gestionados (MSP) se encargue de todos los aspectos de la protección de su negocio. Pague una tarifa mensual constante para que un MSP maneje todas sus necesidades de tecnología, parches, monitoreo y evaluación. Mantente al tanto de las últimas amenazas de ciberseguridad con un MSP u obtén más información sobre cómo instalar un UTM. Podemos ayudarlo a protegerse de los peligros de la Dark Web. ¡Llámenos hoy al 786-233-2002! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Article translated in English Link: https://www.simplesolutiontech.com/post/the-dark-web-and-its-impact-on-your-business #blog #simplesolutiontechblog #cybercrime #darkweb #security
