What Do Core Values Mean To Us?

Back in April, we introduced you to our Core Values. As we continue to grow as a company, our team continues to grow within these core values. While we have broken down these core values before, what better way to dive deeper into these values than to ask our own team members what these values mean to them? Passion: ?When I think about Passion & Info Advantage, I think about the work we do as an organization and the clients we do the work for.  At all times, we strive to provide our clients with expert guidance, based upon best business practices, while also building valuable relationships.  In everything we do, we give our best so we all can achieve our best.? ? Matt Christensen, Manager of Technical Services Nimble: ?Being able to stay current with the latest technologies. Ability to juggle multiple tasks simultaneously, and the skill of working on a single task but being aware of what is going on with other co-workers in your environment and being able to break away from your task to assist.? ? Todd Glick, Senior Systems Engineer Relentless Perseverance: ?No matter what the issue is, our team at IA always looks for a solution. We never stop until a solution is found that supports and helps our clients be productive. We are relentless on making sure our clients are productive no matter the time or day!? ?

The Power of Threat Hunting

When is the last time you thought about your level of vulnerability to cyber threats? Cyber threat hunting is an active search through your networks, endpoints, and databases to hunt malicious or risky activities that have dodged detection by your existing tools. Proactive cyber threat hunting tactics have evolved to use new threat intelligence on previously collected data to categorize potential threats in advance of attacks ? and that?s something everyone should be thinking about.   In the VMware Global Threat Report, which interviewed over 3,000 IT leaders from 13 different countries, it found that 80% of internal IT teams are starting to formalize their processes and that trends are moving in the right direction for the industry overall. People now understand its importance. It?s easy to understand it once you?ve been breached ? but we suggest not waiting for that to happen. Having a good a security posture starts with gaining information. Info Advantage is able to tailor a security strategy paired with Sophos comprehensive threat analytics to help gain full visibility into your environment. Once our experienced technicians assess the capabilities your network requires, we implement the best solution. Browse this Example Managed Threat Response (MTR) Monthly Report to see the threat data we focus on and how comprehensive it is. You deserve to know what?s happening in your business.   It?s also important to understand many businesses can?t afford to believe that their security system is impenetrable. You must remain vigilant for the next threat rather than sit back and wait for threats to strike. Could your organization benefit from improved cybersecurity protection?
