3 things your IT Service Provider updated

3 things your IT Service Provider  wants you know

Are you considering bringing an IT Service Provider on board? Or perhaps you already have one. Either way, for you to truly benefit from your relationship with an IT Service Provider, you need to build a solid bond with them. As an IT Service Provider who has been in this business for long, I can tell you the 3 important steps that will help you get there.

Share, share, share

Your IT Service Provider is your IT doctor. Just as you would share everything about your health with your doctor, you need to share everything related to your business that impacts your IT, with your  IT Service Provider. Give us an overview of your business and answer questions such as

  • What you do exactly as a business
  • Who are your key clients
  • Which industry verticals do you serve
  • What are your peak and lull seasons, if you have them
  • What are the core regulatory codes that apply to you based on the industries you work for
  • What are your business expansion plans for the near future and in the long run
Sometimes clients shy away from discussing all these things because they don’t trust the  IT Service Provider enough. There is a fear of the  IT Service Provider sharing business plans and other confidential information with their competitors. As an  IT Service Provider, I can tell you that we work best with clients who trust us. When you are trusting us with the lifeblood of your business--your IT infrastructure, you should be able to trust us with your plans for your business.

Let’s talk often

While it’s great that you outsource your IT completely to us, it is still important that we meet and talk. Your business needs may change over time and we don’t want to be caught off-guard. We know you are busy, but set some time aside every month or even every quarter to catch up with us and discuss your IT challenges and needs.

Take us seriously

Your IT is our business, and we take our business very seriously. So, when we tell you something, such as--to implement strong password policies, limit data access, upgrade antivirus, etc., please take notice!

Teamwork forms the core of any successful relationship. Same holds true for your relationship with your  IT Service Provider. Trust us, pay attention to us and hear us out. We’d love that...and we’d love to work with you!

The biggest threat to your I.T infrastructure: Your own employees Did you know that your employees often unwittingly ‘help’ cybercriminals gain access to your system? Often, employees play a part in compromising the security of your IT infrastructure, even without them realizing it. For example- When your employees use their own devices for work purposes such as to access emails, to connect to work servers or to work on office files. In the event their device gets infected by a malware or hacked, the virus or the hacker gets access to your data as well. Your employees may put your network at risk by connecting to unauthorized networks, downloading unauthorized software, using outdated antivirus programs etc, on their personal devices and then using it to access work files.Then, there’s the chance of them losing their devices such as smartphones, laptops or tablets putting your data at risk. Your employees may also fall victim to phishing messages and scams and expose your network to th

That protection is the password, so let's talk about bedding up your employee’s handling of passwords. Password hygiene - Passwords remain the most common everyday tool to ensure only authorized personnel have access to secure material.
