Perth Companies Are Vulnerable Without Proper IT Support

PERTH, Australia - June 24, 2016 - PRLog -- Many companies in Western Australia are vulnerable without seeking advice regarding IT Support and services.  We see many small businesses operate without a server, anti-virus products or even a means of backups.  Without a managed environment, companies are subject to data loss, digital attacks and higher levels of malware/viruses.

In recent months the number of businesses who have experienced data loss significantly increased due to the increase in ransomware such as the Cryptolocker virus. This malicious software encrypts all data on a workstation and associated network drives and demands you pay a fee for the data to be unencrypted. To a small business in Perth without proper IT Support, this can do irreversible amounts of damage.

In the current economic environment, all businesses are trying to cut costs where possible and IT Support is something which is often marked as non-essential for smallest businesses. Avantgarde Technologies strongly recommends at very minimum small businesses should consider an entry level server such as a HP Proliant MicroServer Gen8 G2020T, a copy of Windows Server Essentials, basic USB Drive backup solution and an Anti-Virus product.  This will provide piece of mind for small business that security measures are in place and data is backed up regularly on a nightly basis.

For Perth customers who are lucky enough to be connected to the new National Broadband Network (NBN), Cloud solutions such as Office 365 is an option to provide secure storage in the cloud, available for all devices.
