Law firms across the Southeast are feeling the pressure in 2024. Casework is more digital than ever, clients expect faster communication, and courts are relying heavily on electronic filings and virtual tools — all while cyberattacks targeting law offices continue to rise. The combination of these forces is pushing firms to modernize their IT and security in ways that simply weren’t necessary a few years ago. Many firms are now realizing that the tools and systems they relied on for...

Almost every ransomware event and business email compromise we’re seeing this year starts with a compromised Microsoft 365 identity — not a firewall breach and not a server exploit. Here’s why Microsoft 365 hardening is now mission-critical. In 2024, Microsoft 365 security has become one of the most important parts of protecting a business. Almost every ransomware event and business email compromise we're seeing this year starts with a compromised Microsoft 365 identity — not a...

In 2024, cyber threats are moving faster than most businesses can respond. Attacks that used to unfold over days or weeks now spread in hours — sometimes minutes. That’s why continuous monitoring has become one of the most important parts of modern cybersecurity. When threats move this quickly, checking logs once a day or relying on occasional alerts just isn’t enough anymore. Continuous monitoring gives organizations real-time visibility into suspicious activity across Microsoft...

AI is changing cybersecurity faster than anyone expected. Attackers are using AI to make phishing, social engineering, and identity attacks more convincing, more targeted, and harder to detect — at a scale we’ve never seen before. AI is reshaping the way cyberattacks are planned and executed. In 2024, attackers are using AI tools to generate highly convincing messages, automate reconnaissance, and tailor phishing to specific roles, industries, and even individual people. The result is...

Microsoft 365 has become the backbone of how small and midsized businesses operate. Email, files, collaboration, authentication, security policies, compliance settings — everything runs through M365 now. And in 2025, we’re seeing a trend that’s catching a lot of businesses off guard: their tenant has slowly drifted out of alignment with how they actually work today. It doesn’t happen all at once. People come and go, roles change, new apps get added, old policies stick around, and...

Every year, cybersecurity tools get more advanced, and cyberattacks get more sophisticated. But here’s the part most small businesses don’t realize in 2025: you don’t have to do everything to be secure — you just have to get the basics right. The majority of breaches we’re seeing across South Georgia and North Florida aren’t happening because a business “didn’t have the best technology.” They’re happening because simple, high-impact controls weren’t in place. Fix...

For years, businesses thought of Wi-Fi as a convenience — something that simply needed to be “fast enough” for users to get online. But in 2025, Wi-Fi plays a far bigger role. It’s not just about coverage or speed anymore. Wi-Fi has quietly become a security device, and the quality of your wireless network now has a direct impact on your overall cybersecurity posture. This shift is happening because of how modern business works. Nearly every tool, workflow, and security control...

Microsoft Teams and SharePoint have quietly become the backbone of how businesses communicate and store information. In many organizations, these tools have replaced file servers, shared drives, and even parts of email. But in 2025, companies are discovering something important: Teams and SharePoint can create serious security risks when they’re not managed properly. Most businesses didn’t roll out Microsoft 365 with a long-term governance plan. They turned it on, created a few Teams,...

In 2024, Microsoft 365 security has become one of the most important parts of protecting a business. Almost every ransomware event and business email compromise we’re seeing this year starts with a compromised Microsoft 365 identity — not a firewall breach, and not a traditional server hack. Attackers know that if they can get into Microsoft 365, they can access email, files, Teams chats, SharePoint data, OneDrive, and even sensitive identity roles inside Entra (Azure AD). That’s...

AI is changing cybersecurity faster than anyone expected. In 2024, attackers are using AI tools to make social engineering, phishing, and identity theft far more convincing — and they’re doing it at a scale we’ve never seen before. The result is a wave of cyberattacks that feel more personal, more accurate, and much harder to detect. This shift is happening across every industry in our region. Whether it’s a manufacturing plant, a law office, a Senior Living community, or a...

As more organizations move deeper into Microsoft 365, Azure, and other cloud platforms, something important is happening in 2024: cloud governance is no longer viewed as an “IT cleanup task.” It’s becoming a core business requirement. Companies are realizing that without strong oversight, cloud environments can become messy, risky, and difficult to control — especially when multiple teams, departments, and external vendors are involved. The shift to hybrid and remote work over the...
