Working Effectively and Productively

In todays wired world, distractions are as common as sand in the Sahara.

Focusing is difficult. Software and news feeds are designed to pull us away from what we need/want to do. They are time thieves.

Strangely, even though software is designed to diffuse our focus, there are tech tools created to help us.

These tools put a tech wall around us, leaving us free to focus on what really matters to us.

Cyber-Security for Small Business

Cyber-Security is not only for big business.

We need to give attention to it as well.

Most security breaches in Canada do not come from outside hackers.

They come from right inside your company….

Yup, it is true. They come from…. your…employees.

On purpose? Nooooo.

They happen from opening attachments to email with malware built in.

Or highly sophisticated requests for payments to bills that appear to be coming from your suppliers.

Global Password Protection

How many of you have passwords that you:

  1. Repeat for all your software?
  2. Almost never change?
  3. Create so you can easily memorize?

For me, guilty as charged. 😊

I am looking at software to protect everything inside a protected vault. The software creates complex passwords, not easily hackable.

There are three types of password vaults you can use:

  1. Browser based (lease secure, and usually free)
  2. Cloud-based (not free, more secure)
  3. Desktop based (most secure, not free)

How Well is Your Website Working

Websites are more than a brochure for your company/organization.

They should be designed to attract new clients and draw them into taking some action step.
