Cyber Security for Small Businesses
Common problems we help with
Most small business IT problems are not isolated. Email relies on the domain and internet connection, cloud files rely on user accounts and permissions, and WiFi problems can affect phones, laptops, printers and payment systems. Beyond Beige looks at the wider picture so the fix is useful, not just quick.
- Suspicious emails and phishing attempts
- Weak or shared passwords
- Old software and unmanaged updates
