Nick Ellis,
Digital Transformation Consultant

We are all adapting to working remotely and we’ve seen a number of new phrases enter the language this year – “Work from anywhere” is one we like a lot, and one you’ll be seeing more of next year is the “virtual commute”, the time in the morning preparing for work and in the evening winding down.

How Microsoft 365 changes your approach to business change

Nick Ellis,
Digital Transformation Consultant

Everywhere you look these days you see posts, articles and books about how you need to change your business. While for people who have spent a lifetime building a business that’s not always an easy message to hear, I think 2020 has showed that increased agility, productivity and mobility will be important. As we normalise life after COVID-19, or perhaps live permanently with it, the changes it forced upon us will have a long impact.

Cyber Security: Playing the Blame Game

Russell Gower-Leech,
Technical Solutions Architect

I was talking with a colleague the other day about security breaches and in particular business email compromises. Just to set the scene, a business email compromise is where a criminal (or threat actor as they're called in the infosec world) gets in the middle of a chain of email communications to divert funds. There are several ways this can happen and I'll cover those as we go, but in this instance a user had received an email notifying them of a change of bank details so they could pay an outstanding invoice. The email came from a known contact and followed an existing thread.

What IT do I need to work from home?

Jig Mehta,
Marketing Executive

The times they are a-changin', and they certainly are. As we are pushed out of the office for the second time, we must accept that working from home is likely to be the new normal for much longer. Having the right IT equipment at home will allow you to continue to be as productive as possible and having the wrong or outdated IT is only likely to slow you down, reduce morale and will cause you to become disgruntled.

Wi-Fi: Are you getting the best coverage?

Russell Gower-Leech,
Technical Solutions Architect

Wi-Fi is an interesting beast in that it has become ubiquitous in its presence and our desire to consume it. Wherever we go we are either looking out for free Wi-Fi or the businesses we visit are actively promoting we use it. In our homes it fuels most of our devices (I dare say there will be some like me who own a comms cabinet full of tech but it's pretty rare) and should it fail it can (according to my children) be like falling back in time.
