Right now you have an explanation on certifications, why security is a problem and the services you offer but why would I pick you over anyone else? I know the who and I know the what but give me the why.

I'm not purchasing Cisco gear unless hell freezes over

If there is any other option (and there are) then we'll go with that.

No matter what technology you are using. Whether it be Cloud / On premise / Hybrid a key goal in IT is to make our systems reliable. Reliability does not come from just buying the right product. With buzzwords like dual redundancy and high availability it can be easy to trust that everything will be ok, until it is not. Regardless of what project you are doing, here are key tips for delivering the project in a way that is reliable and it can help you decide how best to spend your IT budget.

According to Microsoft, any feature of the server, whether DNS/DHCP you need a CAL.

Most organisations get around that with user cals rather than device cals.
Just because everyone is doing it, does not mean they can keep doing it That's why these audits are so profitable for Microsoft.

Second addition... Got a new concealed carry today. Smith and Wesson M&P Shield 45. Was hard to find one without a safety as it hasn't been out long at all.

You want an item in your trousers which could go off and blow off your crown jewels?

The last 2 lines of the article say it all for me

"User education will not prevent every attack. But it will prevent some while we’re waiting for those perfect defenses to arrive."

Just wait till the Chinese offer to sell them a firewall.

Companies like Dell/HP/Lenovo are getting around the SSD issue by adding 200% markups to them

Does anyone trust or even like GoDaddy? First year discounts are always nice but then what happens at year 2?

Better performance
Greater security
Lower cost of ownership

Did a Government actually choose to do the smart thing for once?

For the hard to access station, they should have spares on a shelf, but in theory, when you buy a drive and store it for 3 years, what happens with the warranty if you put it in and it dies after a month?

I know of one UK MSP who has removed Teamviewer from most of their devices as a result of this, turned security up to 11. It is only left live on 1 server per client site which needs a log in prompt anyway and all security options in TV are enabled.

Soon they will be on to another tool I'm guessing.

Now if TV have not been hacked fine but their PR handling of this is costing them customers, period.

Commercially, I'd love to use this for production "demos" to clients.

Show them "This is your network on a SAN" watch me break it

Then show them "This is your well designed proper network, watch me break it and recover from it quickly.

OwnCloud was an option but not my first choice.

With the rapid advancement NextCloud is making, The difference is night and day. Let's see how it goes in the next few months.

Posted a reply to a thread, I now get a notification to every reply that thread has, can't see in settings how to turn it off, this did not happen before today.

@coliver - For the Cisco, 1 million dollars.

For every other brand, maybe a few hundred.

Starting the clock.

Well, has it ever done a bad job?

I've got some that were similar, I looked at the site and it looked more put together and more real. I had a hunch but just wanted to make sure. Thanks.

Your drive by rootkit is now installed, have a nice day

The other thing you have done, is sent a tracking message to the spammer to say the email address is monitored.
