September Technology Quick Tips

Is it that risky to let staff use their own devices for work?
Yes, if it’s not managed correctly. Personal devices are often less secure. And if they’re lost or compromised, your business data could go with them. 

How often should we change our passwords?
Change passwords immediately if you suspect a breach or if a service you use has been compromised. For accounts with sensitive data like banking and email, consider changing passwords every three to six months. A password manager can help you keep track of your passwords and accounts.

Do we need to back up data if we’re using cloud services?
Yes! Most cloud services protect their systems, but not your data. Accidental deletion, user error, or cyberattacks can still result in loss.
