We've put together our first 5 simple tips to protect your IT. Most of these can be deployed immediately and at no extra cost.

Use a different password for each service, minimum 9+ character complexity. Do not overdo it with frequent changes. - Where to go with passwords? Use a password manager.
- Use multifactor logins wherever possible. For those who don't know what this is, it's similar to logging into a bank. App or text.
- Back up according to the 3-2-1 rule.
