Ever wonder about the secret lives of SynerTel staff?  What do we do on those rare moments when emails aren't answered right away?

 

Phones+ Magazine recently published "Ben Stiegler, Man of Note" about my 'other' life as a musician.

Does your business arrange important transactions over the phone? Make deals? Issue prescriptions? Provide customer support? Ever wished you could play back a call to document what a customer or staff member said for later review, or to prove exactly when and what was said?

 

Ever want to see what was on a staff member's computer screen while during the conversation? Was the right discount applied? Was the correct patient record open? Was the order really completed and confirmed by 5pm?

 

SynerTel and Oaisys offer a wide variety of call and workflow documentation systems - with surprisingly affordable budgets.  And now you can install and try one risk-free - for up to 60 days!

 

May 2010  - University researchers  at UC San Diego and the University of Washington have taken a close look at the computer systems used to run today's cars and discovered new ways to hack into them, sometimes with frightening results.

 

By simply connecting to the standard diagnostic computer port included in all late-model cars, researchers were able to do some nasty things, such as turning off the brakes, changing the speedometer reading, blasting hot air or music on the radio, and even locking passengers in the car.

The researcher's goal was to raise auto industry and regulatory awareness about the need to better secure on-board automotive systems.  (At least the Edsel never had this problem).

 

While we don't have a solution for this (yet!), its wise to understand the degree to which we rely on software in almost every area of our lives - cars, elevators, smart phones.

 

You can count on SynerTel to provide reliable computer security solutions - and to keep a thoughtful eye on ways to better secure other software-based pieces of your world!
