“We needed help it was only a phone call away”
“We enjoyed another successful year at Hoag Library in no small part due to our relationship with Info Advantage. With the help of Johnathan and Linda we replaced many of our computers this year and have finally gotten all of our equipment onto a three year cycle for replacement. The installation of the new computers was handled in house knowing that if we needed help it was only a phone call away. Jeremiah was instrumental in helping us get all of the new equipment online and swapping out some other equipment with items that were at the end of life. Other times we have depended on Jacob to help us figure out why we were having problems. (an unknown power outage was one cause.) and he and Kris reset programs when we could not make successful updates. We were also unable to catalog new books when the dedicated computer went down. We sent the computer to IA , they performed “magic” and Jacob returned it and reinstalled it until our new computers came in.”

“Words can’t describe the difference Info Advantage has made."
“I have been working with the Info Advantage team for a little over a year now as the IT Manager for VP Supply Corp. Words cannot describe the difference Info Advantage has made in my ability to do my job and protect our network and information assets. What started as a hardware vendor has now evolved into providing MSSP services to better protect our network – and we could not be happier with the quick return on investment this has given us. I would like to give a special shout-out to the members of the Info Advantage team who have not only done their job exceptionally well but have also mastered the soft skills and make me feel as though I can always reach out if we need them. Johnathan, Chris Chan, Chris McDonald, and Nick Wetherwax have been outstanding over the past year. With continued success like this VP Supply will have Info Advantage as a partner for many, many years to come!”

“I’ve worked with Info Advantage for 12 yrs. across multiple companies.”
“I have worked with Info Advantage over the past 12 years at a couple of companies. This year, Info Advantage helped me deploy a new VMWare / EMC environment for my current employer. During the selection process, they were very responsive with quote changes, responses to questions and updates explaining every aspect of the roll-out. They were very willing to take my current level of knowledge into consideration in the quoting process and their quotes were very competitive. Once awarded the project, Info Advantage proceeded very quickly to order and install the hardware in agreed time with on-hands training and system documentation for me. I would personally recommend Info Advantage for any project.”

Too Much Access: Insider Threats & Helles Lager
Welcome to week four of Brews & Cyber Threats, our fall blog series where Info Advantage pairs today’s most pressing cybersecurity threats with standout beers from Rohrbach Brewing Company in Rochester.
This week, we’re going beyond the obvious. We’ve already covered outside threats like phishing, ransomware, and BEC scams—but now it’s time to tackle one of the most overlooked risks of all: insider threats.
To match this subtle, underestimated danger, we’re pairing it with Rohrbach’s Helles Lager. Smooth, crisp, and easygoing on the surface, it can still cause trouble when underestimated—just like insider threats.
What Are Insider Threats?
Insider threats happen when someone inside your organization—an employee, contractor, or business partner—puts your systems or data at risk, either by accident or on purpose.
They typically fall into three categories:
Negligent insiders – Mishandle data, fall for phishing, or bypass security rules
Compromised insiders – Have stolen credentials being used by attackers
Malicious insiders – Intentionally leak, steal, or destroy data for revenge, anger, or profit
For small and mid-sized businesses, the fallout can be devastating:
Lost customer data
Stolen intellectual property
Compliance fines and penalties
Damaged trust with clients and employees
In fact, insider threat incidents have risen 44% in the past two years, with the average breach costing $11.45 million.
Info Advantage’s Advice: Shut the Door!
Insider threats are tricky to detect because they come from people you already trust with access. But there are proactive ways to stay ahead:
User Access Management – Give users only the access they need
Monitoring & Alerting – Flag unusual logins, data downloads, or policy violations
Regular Offboarding – Immediately disable access when employees or contractors leave
Ongoing Security Training – Educate teams on their role in protecting the business
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) – Block attackers from exploiting stolen credentials
The Beer Pairing: Helles Lager
Rohrbach’s Helles Lager is a German-style classic—crisp, clean, and balanced. It feels safe and familiar, but as with insider threats, letting your guard down can cause problems fast.
This pairing works because both the beer and the threat seem predictable, until they’re not.
Trust Is Good. Control Is Better.
Insider threats may be difficult to spot, but with the right systems in place, you can monitor activity, limit damage, and respond quickly.
Unsure who has access to what, or how ready your business is to face insider risks?
