If you’re still running Windows 10 on your business machines, let’s cut to the chase: The clock is ticking.

On October 14, 2025, Microsoft is officially ending support for Windows 10. That means no more security patches, no more bug fixes and no more technical support.

It’s easy to shrug off email downtime as just a common inconvenience every business faces now and then. But the truth is, email downtime doesn’t have to be a regular occurrence in your company. With the right maintenance and IT care, it’s possible to keep your email systems running smoothly at all times.

You set it. You forget it. And just like that, while you’re packing for vacation, your inbox starts automatically broadcasting:

“Hi there! I’m out of the office until [date]. For urgent matters, please contact [coworker’s name and e-mail].”

Sounds harmless, right? Convenient, even.

If you’re only talking to your IT provider when you renew your contract, you’re doing it wrong.

Technology isn’t a “set it and forget it” part of your business. It’s constantly evolving, and so are the threats that come with it.

Like every industry in New York, healthcare is competitive and fast-paced, with time and data being very precious. You need to ensure the integrity of your digital records, regardless if you’re running a private practice, managing a multilocation clinic, or overseeing administrative duties at a local hospital.

Your employees might be the biggest cybersecurity risk in your business – and not just because they’re prone to click phishing e-mails or reuse passwords. It’s because they’re using apps your IT team doesn’t even know about.

This is called Shadow IT, and it’s one of the fastest-growing security risks for businesses today.

If I asked you to name the biggest cybersecurity threats in your office, you’d probably say phishing e-mails, malware or weak passwords. But what if I told you that your office printer – yes, the one quietly humming in the corner – could be one of the biggest vulnerabilities in your entire network?

It sounds ridiculous, but hackers love printers.

Planning a vacation this year? Make sure your confirmation e-mail is legit BEFORE you click anything!

That’s right, summer is right around the corner and cybercriminals are exploiting travel season by sending fake booking confirmations that look nearly identical to e-mails from airlines, hotels and travel agencies.
