(more) IT security is not a purchase, but a process. A small business needs to understand what is at risk and what needs to be protected, then keep increasing your IT Security Hygiene to greater maturity.  To do this you should start with a professional Cyber Security Audit and Risk Assessment. These audits are priced cost effectively for small offices. This will identify what you have, what's exposed, what to do going forward. After deciding how much risk you want to assume and what to remediate you will be informed and be in better control. This generally will begin with some staff awareness, working with your IT support or your staff.  I have read some of the comments, there are good approaches. Layered, Endpoint, etc. Each small business should have it's own approach. Giving you a specific answers, frameworks, services or products without knowing your needs and risks is unlikely to always work. IT support companies historically want to create an "Offering Package", which fits their business model. For a small business this is a good approach to IT Support, not so much for IT Security. They are not the same. When it comes to networks in a Small Business, they are like snowflakes, they are all networks, but slightly different when it comes to cyber security.

Cash is king, reoccurring income is sustainability. For you it’s your dream, for most of your employees it’s a job. Delegate then manage.  Trust is the most valuable asset in an employee. Then read the E-Myth and never give up! (more) Cash is king, reoccurring income is sustainability. For you it’s your dream, for most of your employees it’s a job.

Http:// scskey.com  and Http:// software-now.com  are not accessible web pages at this time. Both sites are no longer online. Sites that sell third party keys and media are a hit and miss as far as the upgrade keys are concerned. Sometimes legal and sometimes not. My rule of thumb is; if you paid less than 75%, it's likely not considered legal by Microsoft. You should first look at sites like Newegg.com, eBay.com, Amazon.com and expect OEM software (you can only put this on a single computer). The other sites selling Microsoft softrware at half or less may work, but sometimes they do not. Also you are likely buying software that Microsoft deems illegal. You take the risk. There are other ways to use Windows software for temporary. trial or development purposes that are free, but that is not likely what this subject is about.

I am an IT Consultant. Word of mouth is the absolutely the best. On larger opportunities, if I need to design, discover or plan, then I may discount the design cost on the actual project. This is a win-win for my client and I. Selling price in a professional solution has never worked for me. Les... (more) I am an IT Consultant. Word of mouth is the absolutely the best.

I support companies throughout the US. I could do this for you. However, you have an IT company in Redding,  3161 Bechelli Lane, Suite #100 Redding, CA 96002. Call them. Even if you don't use their services. You can get their local opinion. (more) I support companies throughout the US. I could do this for you.

(more) I have been a managed services provider for over 30 years. Thanks for the introduction to the process. At this time, I have recently added the process (2 years ago) of testing small businesses for cyber security risk, IT vulnerability and threats. I inspect your office computers, run software that determines your vulnerability to being hacked or exploited. In this process, with your permission and control, I non-destructively emulate a hacker and inspect your computers and Servers for weaknesses. Technically this is called a Cyber Security Risk Assessment Audit with vulnerability scans and penetration testing. We do this locally and remotely throughout the U.S for small health care offices. I work with your IT support people, or will help you resolve your vulnerabilities and threats. The benefit to doing this is to make you considerably less exposed to financial loss due to hackers, malware and employee mishaps. I focus on small offices from 1 to 50 computers. The costs and process are "right-sized" for the small business office. This type of IT security work historically been too expensive for the SMB. I have changed that. Call me, you will not be disappointed. Thank you, Les Multack Computer Solutions & Security, Ltd Wheeling, IL 847-722-1720 CSS-LIMITED.com
