Why Do Hackers Attack My Website?

By Seamus Campbell Leave a Comment

Why Do Hackers Attack My Website

One of the biggest questions I get from a small business with a small website is – “I don’t really need security for my website because there’s nothing worth, you know, sort of pinching if you like or taking from my website” – that’s really a bit of flawed thinking.

So why do hackers attack websites in the first place?

Zoom storage and transcription

By Seamus Campbell Leave a Comment

Zoom has really increased the number of settings that are available to you.
And they’ve also put a lot of these settings on sort of a higher security default.
So it’s worth going into your zoom, when you enter your web zoom page, where you first sign in and just going through all the settings.

Zoom – what the others are doing to catch up

By Seamus Campbell Leave a Comment

Zoom Meeting

Last week we spoke about, zoom and the popularity of video conferencing that seemed to take off with the enforced hibernation that we’ve got from COVID-19. But that’s not the only one on the market, I think Zoom’s got a head start on everyone else, everyone else playing catch up, are they.

But, Microsoft and Google are busy playing catch up because they realised there’s a huge market for this now it’s probably not going to diminish greatly. When we all get back to what we call normal life.

Coronavirus Google and Microsoft

Coronavirus - Google and Microsoft

I’m going to talk about what’s happening with the Coronavirus, one of the many things that have happened is that, for instance, the World Health Organisation has recommended that people travel less for the next few months just to try and slow down the spread of the Coronavirus. And the big companies are cancelling their physical conferences and things like that. But how it affects local businesses and councils and organisations here is that the two major companies, Google and Microsoft are offering free versions of their enterprise-level, video conferencing software, which is an amazing offer.

VPN – what it is and why you should have one

By Seamus Campbell Leave a Comment

Speedify

I think most of us have heard of the term VPN and often we don’t really know what it is, or we’ve got a bit of a wrong idea about what it can do. What it actually stands for is, Virtual Private Network and what it does is, it encrypts your data going from your computer to a website.

You should keep ALL your data in the cloud! I repeat, put your data in cloud storage – very important. Why? One very good reason is that’s it’s safe there.
