Your network security solution was supposed to help you solve your cybersecurity problems. Instead, it’s generating more logs and alerts than your team can possibly review.
If you’re a small company with a small IT team, security log overload won’t help you defend your network. You need a tool that can find the most important information within those piles of data.
When something goes wrong with your vehicle, you probably take it in to be worked on by a mechanic, who can quickly diagnose the problem and take the steps necessary to correct it. Often, the problem isn’t the part itself, but the way that you maintain the car. For example, if you don’t change the oil regularly, the dirty oil will eventually damage the engine, causing more headaches (and a bigger repair bill) than had you just taken the 30 minutes to get the oil changed in the first place.
In many ways, your IT network is similar to your car. All of the parts of your network must be working properly in order for it to work efficiently, or even at all. If one part isn’t working up to par, or stops working altogether, the effects can ripple through the entire network — even causing it to shut down altogether. And much like serious problems in your automobile can be prevented by following the maintenance schedule and working with a qualified mechanic to find and fix small problems before they become big ones, serious problems in your network can be prevented by regular monitoring and maintenance.
If you’ve started a blog but have yet to grow your readership or make money from it, it’s time to look at the competition. What makes a blog successful? The best blogs all seem to have a few qualities in common. They’re updated reliably, with unique content and a distinct voice. They are usually aesthetically appealing, easy to navigate, and feature active comment sections. Although every successful blogger may follow his or her own path to success, there are a few qualities that they tend to share.
Successful bloggers often have the following traits or skills, which is worth keeping in mind as you work on your own projects.

There are plenty of ways you can market your site, but SEO and SEM are still the two most popular tools to use.

How do you use your smartphone? If you’re like many, you may already use it to answer emails, update your website, wake you up in the morning, track your fitness program, and listen to new music. Do you use it as a wallet yet? If not, you probably will soon. Mobile commerce is becoming big business, so it’s essential for savvy ecommerce entrepreneurs to take note.
I went to buy a new printer last week for my Business, I was actually quite shocked and taken aback from how small they had got and how advanced. There are plenty of articles online about the newest ones and reviews etc. So I thought I would create an article and take a look back over the years of the printer! This may bring back a few memories for us older ones, and for the younger ones, well it may open your eyes to how hard it was for us! That small place where you lay your laptop or desktop computer used to be the space where the printer was, haha!
Every small business owner has a Facebook page. Now what?
Some few of them are very adept at sharing and posting and putting up their specials – but most of them are not.
But before we go too far into what you should be doing, let’s double down on one point. Your Google+ page may be even more important for SEO and driving traffic than your Facebook page. So do everything below with BOTH your Facebook page and your Google+ page too (even if you’re barely maintaining that Google+ page).
If you’re primarily a B2B business, you may want to do the same on LinkedIn. And if you’re sure that your customer base is actively using some other social media, then by all means, do all of the following there too.
This article is primarily focusing on what small businesses can and should do to get more traffic from the activities they take part in on social media. There are other benefits too, but for now we’re mostly focused on driving organic traffic from Social Media posts. Some of that traffic will naturally go to your social media profiles, rather than directly to your website. That’s the nature of the beast, so be sure that people can easily navigate from your social media profile pages directly to your site.
