If you still view your IT department as a mere secondary expense, you are likely overlooking the most significant threat to your company's profitability. In today’s landscape, digital infrastructure isn't just a static utility; it is the very plumbing of your revenue. It functions as either a reinforced vault protecting your hard-earned gains or a porous sieve where your margins quietly drain away. To truly safeguard your legacy, you must look past the technical jargon and recognize a fundamental truth: cybersecurity isn't a tech problem relegated to a basement office—it is a direct and measurable pillar of your financial stability.

While you’re busy shoring up your cybersecurity measures, it’s worth asking what you’re doing about physical security breaches. Considering the risk they pose to your employees, data, and equipment, you shouldn’t leave this issue unaddressed for your business. Any small business owner should strive for the peace of mind that physical security can bring about.

Let’s say that a small business, maybe even one of your neighbors, just poured thousands of dollars into the latest and greatest security software and firewall system. You’re impressed… until a disgruntled employee walks in one night, nothing to stop them, and takes a hammer to the server they have behind an unlocked door.

Suddenly, there’s one less small business, and there was nothing that expensive security software could do about it.

Keeping track of your business' technology is really important for smooth operations and long-term success. You need to monitor things like computers, servers, mobile devices, and software licenses to avoid unnecessary costs and security problems. A good inventory system helps you know what technology you have, where it is being used, and when it needs maintenance or replacement. This ensures that your team has the right tools when they need them, which boosts productivity and growth.
