Passwords, backups and the basics of security

Security without the scare stories

Most breaches don't come from Hollywood hackers. They come from the basics being left undone. The good news? The basics are cheap to fix.

Passwords: long, unique, stored safely

A password manager means your team can use strong, unique passwords for every account without memorising a single one. It's the single biggest security upgrade you can make.

Turn on two-factor everywhere

It's a few seconds of extra effort for your team and a massive barrier for anyone trying to get in. Turn it on, especially on email and finance accounts.

Backups that actually work

A backup is only a backup if you've tested restoring from it. We see "backups" every week that turned out to be silently broken.

Keep things updated

Most attacks exploit old, unpatched software. Automatic updates on your computers, server and website close the most common doors.

Peace of mind

Get these four right and you've eliminated the vast majority of risk for very little cost. We can help you tick them off in an afternoon.
