One of our core values here at LeadingIT is promoting health. Science proves, physical and mental health greatly affect productivity. We believe healthy client networks and staff = success. The following are ideas we’ve implemented around our office to promote health.

In a Fortune article, the CEO of Insight Enterprises, an Arizona based IT company, has a warning for American business leaders. The world, he says, is shifting from old “information technology” to cutting edge “intelligent technology” and if you don’t embrace the changes you will lose.

There’s a price to pay for the increased efficiency and reach enabled by the digital age. We’ve all heard the story before. A massive, multinational corporation neglects some aspect of their security and falls victim to a crippling large-scale cyberattack, with criminals lifting millions of dollars in customer data and digital assets.

Today’s technological innovations have empowered small businesses to do things that would have been utterly unimaginable even 15 years ago. To remain competitive in a constantly shifting landscape, we’ve become more dependent on software and hardware to house even the most basic structures of the companies we run.

What do you do at Leading IT?
Benchwork and On-site. I set computers up and deliver them and set them up on-site. I also assist in delivering servers and networking equipment, and doing physical setup on-site.

You've heard it before, the only constant in technology is change. Cybercrime damages cost more than $3 trillion in 2015, representing the greatest transfer of economic wealth in history.  The headlines have been littered with such news on data breaches, hacks and attacks.

We are seeing a massive influx of EMAIL campaigns oriented to steal your credentials, your company data, or worse company MONEY. We have seen attempts at wire transfer fraud in which spoofers ask for tens of thousands of dollars to be transferred. We have also seen phishing for credentials on the up rise.
