Every organization seems to be looking to cloud services to help scale their business in one way or another. If your business is one of those who haven’t made the transition yet, then here are a few things to consider. The most common cloud migration involves moving your email to the cloud. This allows companies to move their email systems away from an Exchange server, freeing up bandwidth and providing flexibility in allowing employees to access their email more easily from any location. Many companies are also looking into migrating their existing servers and backups from physical hardware to the cloud, which makes many essential business processes and information more accessible when and where you need it. This could also give you the ability to scale up or down at a moment’s notice.
We’ve discussed the benefits of cloud migration in previous posts, as well as the considerations that you need to keep in mind before making the transition. Most businesses are familiar with the concept of migrating their email exchange servers and data backups to the cloud, but did you know that you can also migrate your unified communications to the cloud as well? Cloud-based phone systems fall under the same general umbrella of benefits and considerations that we talked about before, but there are some unique factors to keep in mind as well.
Unified communications is a term that gets used a lot in business, but do you really know everything that it encompasses? When TAG Solutions was founded in 1991, we focused solely on unified communications, so we have been on the cutting edge of that technology from day one. However, in this digital world, there are so many things that fall under that umbrella that we wanted to make sure you knew all of the ways to keep your business connected. Unified communications not only affect how we interface with our customers, but also how we communicate and collaborate internally. It is an ever-evolving field that continues to produce new technologies that make working together easier and more seamless.
As we mentioned in our previous post, one of the main facets of unified communications is voice and video calling, specifically VoIP. If that term is unfamiliar to you, it simply means “voice over internet protocol.” However, VoIP isn’t just a way of setting up your business telephone system to operate over the internet instead of a traditional landline. In actuality, VoIP can take many forms, and it’s important to recognize the different ways that VoIP can fit into your UC infrastructure so you can make the best choices for your business.
An effective cybersecurity program is designed to protect the Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability of the organizations’ information systems and digital assets. What does that mean exactly? Well, to start, it means we should discuss the CIA Triad.
As we discussed in our previous post, an effective cybersecurity program incorporates the CIA Triad to create a strong foundation for cybersecurity policy, strategy, and solutions. CIA stands for Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability. We previous discussed the principle of Confidentiality in more detail. In this post, we’re going to focus on the principle of Integrity.
We’ve learned about the first two principles in the CIA Triad, which is the foundation of a strong cybersecurity platform. The three principles are Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability. In this post, we’re going to focus on the third and final principle of Availability.
As 2022 gets underway, people are becoming accustomed to a rapidly evolving reality that has impacted all facets of life and business. Remote work has become the new normal for many industries. Still, managing cybersecurity and data infrastructure when employees work in various locations can challenge companies.
When it comes to stealing information, cybercriminals are not all that particular. While significant data breaches and ransomware attacks on large companies make headlines, smaller businesses and individuals are also targeted.
