Hoping for a quiet week ahead, after two weeks of phishing attacks on our clients.

It's important to stay alert when you're getting emails that are out of the ordinary.

Question anything with a link in it.

Security tools can only do so much, people still need responsibility and training.

I'm busy telling a Phishmas tale over on Substack, find out how our modern day Scrooge is going to fare after a devastating phishing attack on his business!

We posted on LinkedIn yesterday about how you can lock down your Microsoft 365 platform to just the countries you ned.

Nobody cared.

Is BlueSky any different? 👀

Wondering how many #business owners are currently unaware that Windows 10 is going out of support in the next few months.

Are we going to be busy in October? Likely.

Got a #SmallBusiness and need to get your Windows 10 machines upgraded? Don't leave it until the last minute like your tax return!

Not a week goes by without someone asking about blocking phishing messages from their mail system. Stopping messages at an individual level is like playing whack-a-mole.

Systems and training are the answer.

As we close this Pride Month, we celebrate diversity in every line of code. Without diversity, you wouldn't have the great apps, devices and services you rely on today.

Happy #InternationalWomensDay - we attended a great event this week where women shared their stories of success, adversity, happiness and sadness.

It was inspiring, it was informative but it was also depressing to see just how much further we have got to go until we reach true equality. #iwd

Happy New Year all! We’ve not logged on to BlueSky yet in 2025. Sorry!

We must do better.

What are your business tech goals for this year? 👀

#HNY #SmallBusiness

Should Fridays be this busy? Multiple client onboardings, an ISO audit and new device setups... We're sure we should be winding down now... right?

We've sent part of the team off on a finance workshop today... our bet is that they're not still awake at this point! 😳

Just listening to someone talk about a client of theirs, who had a cyber attack earlier this year and STILL isn't convinced they need to spend any money on support or security.

What can you do? Some people will never be convinced.

How would you convince them to part with a few quid?

This is Siarp.

We are a friendly team, who are absolutely obsessive about helping people to improve their businesses.

We are UK based, our clients are all over the country.

We're primarily an IT and Cyber Security business and we have a Virtual Business Management part of the business too!

Why are we here? 🤷‍♂️

It’s time to try something new. We are all about working differently.

Helping our clients to build better businesses needs new ways of thinking.

So let’s give BlueSky a try.

Please introduce yourself… 🙏
