With
the Holiday Season fast approaching, it's a good
time to remember and reflect. Sometimes that may
be those we have not thought about for a while.
It has been a tough year for many with the
economic challenges we have faced as individuals
and companies. We may also think of and share
with those less fortunate through food banks,
charity appeals and simple kindness to each
other.
At MSI,
theITeam, we are grateful for the continued
support of our many long term Clients and those
new Clients and friends we have made over the
last year. Thank you from all of us. We wish you
a safe and joyous holiday season and send our
best wishes for the New Year!
Part
of our preparation for the holidays will be
moving from our current offices to a new
location at Suite 200, 1210 - 8th St. SW in the
"beltline" area in mid-December. We look forward
to the newly renovated space. |

Don't Stop fortifying against risk
Four
ways to mitigate risk in a tough economy
Every business
deals with risk. But medium-sized businesses, with smaller
IT staff and tighter operating budgets are often more
exposed to risk than larger companies. This reality is never
more evident than in a down economy: When the repercussions
of a business disruption are as grave as they are, how do
you insulate your business from risk?
"For mid-sized
businesses, the financial impact of business disruptions is
tremendous," said Anil Miglani, senior vice president,
AMI-Partners. "We estimate that through security breaches
and data loss alone, medium-sized businesses worldwide lost
approximately US$4.7 billion in 2008."
According to
strategy consulting firm AMI-Partners, in 2008 medium-sized
businesses worldwide lost approximately US$4.7 billion due
to security breaches and loss of data.
However, taking
the right precautions with your IT infrastructure can help
you steer clear of danger. Here are four steps you can take
to mitigate risks to your revenue, your reputation, and your
investment – all the things that keep you awake at night as
you wait for this storm to pass.
