Good evening, Reno! I’m here today with Scott Morris, an IT specialist at Reno Computer Services (RCS). Scott, thanks for taking the time to chat with me.
Cyber Security
Scott, let’s start by talking about cyber security. What are some of the biggest threats facing small businesses in our area?
“Cybercrime is a growing concern for everyone, but especially for small businesses who may not have the resources to invest in robust security measures,” says Scott. “We see a lot of phishing attacks targeting local companies, where scammers try to trick employees into giving up sensitive information like usernames and passwords. Consequently, it’s crucial for businesses to implement strong password policies and train their staff on how to identify suspicious emails.”
Backup And Disaster Recovery Solution
Speaking of security, what about data backups? How important are they for small businesses?
“Data backups are absolutely essential,” Scott emphasizes. “Think about it: what would happen if your entire system crashed and you lost all your customer data, financial records, and important documents? It could be devastating. Accordingly, a solid backup and disaster recovery solution can help minimize downtime and get your business back up and running quickly in the event of an emergency.”
Data Security
I remember once my laptop crashed and I lost all my photos from a family vacation. It was heartbreaking! So I understand how important backups are.
“Exactly!” Scott agrees. “And data security goes hand-in-hand with backups. Encrypting sensitive information, both in transit and at rest, is vital to protecting your business from data breaches.” He adds, “In fact, a recent study by the Ponemon Institute found that the average cost of a data breach for small businesses is $2.3 million!”
I can see why data security is such a priority for small business owners.
Scott, this has been incredibly insightful. For any Reno small business owners looking to strengthen their IT infrastructure and protect themselves from cyber threats, where can they turn?
