Remote monitoring and management (RMM) is one of the most critical services and applications offered by a managed services provider (MSP). RMM is a type of software that tracks, monitors, and manages endpoints to improve efficiencies and increase revenues.

With the increased use of mobile devices for work, businesses can no longer take a relaxed attitude toward personal devices on their network. They need to manage these devices because of the security risks they pose and the amount of company data that they may contain.

When it comes to new technologies that promise greater enterprise productivity and cost-efficiency, there will always be a bit of trepidation and even more questions. The cloud is no exception.

There have been many doubts, misconceptions, and exaggerations about the cloud.

Backing up critical business data is an essential safety measure against system outages, natural calamities, data breaches, and ransomware. But is data backup really enough to secure digital assets against those eventualities?

January 14, 2020 is an important date for businesses. Also known as Windows 7 end of life (EOL), it’s the date when developer support and updates, including security patches, come to an end for the very popular operating system (OS).

There was a time when passwords, antivirus software, and firewalls were enough to keep businesses and users safe from cyberattacks.

If you’re like many other businesses, you already have a workload running in the cloud. Cloud migration, however, is a big step. Not everyone can do it on their own. There are scenarios when it makes the most sense to move the cloud, such as when:

Applications are experiencing increased traffic, while it’s becoming difficult to scale resources on the fly to meet increasing customer demand.

Hardware-as-a-Service (HaaS) is a managed service similar to its more popular counterpart, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), a service provision model where software is purchased for a monthly subscription fee instead of the traditional “upfront” basis.
