Absolutely NOTHING should distract you from protecting your personal information.

We’ve just had Thanksgiving week and that means one thing for sure: people were distracted.

Priorities like traveling, buying the turkey, and tackling Black Friday may put protecting one’s personal data on a back burner.

We see it all the time… That one person in the office, maybe even the boss, who got roped into being “The computer guy”.

Maybe they can’t get their “real” job done because they are constantly being pulled away to help with problems.

Never before has security been as important as it is right now. We are seeing a huge uptake in actual breaches right here in our area. The bad guys are getting much better and the good guys are simply falling further behind. The financial damages, the loss of reputation, company operations being completely blocked and virtually every firm is under constant attack.

Would you know what to do in a Credit Card Security Breach?

Following an announcement by the City of Lake Worth that the third party vendor the city uses to handle all online utility payments, had suffered a potential data breach, customers are beginning to report fraudulent charges on the bank accounts they had used when paying their utility bills

One utility client said she had a $40 charge for an Uber ride, yet she hadn’t take an Uber in a year.

Machine learning is all the rage nowadays, and few vendors are providing as many solutions powered by this new technology as Microsoft does. Office 365 includes “intelligent” functionality for analyzing your employees’ time and coaching them on how to use it more efficiently.

Trend Micro Worry Free Business suite (Antivirus and more) has come out with a major upgrade, moving their product from version 9 to version 10.

This version adds some new scanning techniques to improve handling of zero-day attacks, improved notifications to better identify issues as they occur, increased ability to protect you when browsing secured websites that have become the standard lately (and are difficult to scan) and countless other improvements.

We are all, increasingly, relying on our smart devices, to find our nearest store or GPS a route. We also use them to set calendar reminders but in time of crisis, can they help?

It would seem from recent research that some programs can help but others are not as good.
