$22 Million Ransom Paid

$22 Million Ransom Paid

Think you won’t be a victim of a ransomware attack? Think again. A recent attack on one of United Healthcare’s subsidiaries, Optum, within their Change Healthcare platforms revealed that any business is susceptible to an attack. The cyber assault was carried out by AlphV/Blackcat, which is also the group behind the high-profile $100 Million ransomware attack on MGM Resorts International late last year.  

Why It Matters:

  • With ransomware payments in the millions of dollars, copycat hackers who see that even public companies assumed to have the strongest safeguards in place, can be easy and lucrative targets.  
  • As cybercriminals continue to reap the financial rewards of their attacks, experts now expect the ransomware trend to continue.

And it doesn’t matter about the size of the company. It’s not just the big guys. Hackers are casting a wide net, and they’re coming after you.

This is a serious threat, but we’re here to help alert and secure organizations like yours from these costly attacks.

Our comprehensive third-party security assessments can not only detect vulnerabilities, but with our enhanced cybersecurity measures, we can shield your network from ransomware threats – and you from the possibility of having to pay a very expensive ransom.

What can I expect from a migration?

We start by assessing your current infrastructure and understanding your specific needs and objectives. This allows us to create a detailed migration plan tailored to your business requirements. Our team handles the migration of your email and files to the cloud with precision and care. Once your data is in the cloud, we focus on integrating it seamlessly with your existing systems and workflows. We optimize your Microsoft 365 environment to maximize efficiency, collaboration, and security. As part of the migration process, we will remove all servers. This eliminates the hassle and cost associated with server maintenance and allows you to fully embrace the benefits of the cloud. We provide comprehensive training and ongoing support to ensure that your team is equipped to make the most of your new cloud environment. From troubleshooting assistance to best practices guidance, we're here to help every step of the way.

How does this reduce IT expenses?

Our approach focuses on simplifying your IT infrastructure by removing complex and expensive components like on-premises servers. With Microsoft 365, you gain access to a centralized cloud platform that handles everything from email to document storage, collaboration, and advanced security features—all seamlessly integrated and managed in one place. By transitioning to Microsoft 365, you not only reduce the upfront capital expenditures associated with hardware and software licenses but also minimize ongoing operational costs.

Are there any hidden costs?

We never surprise our clients with hidden costs. From the very beginning, we conduct a thorough assessment of your needs and requirements, ensuring that we have a comprehensive understanding of your IT landscape. Once the assessment is complete, we provide you with a detailed proposal that outlines all costs upfront, leaving no room for ambiguity or unexpected expenses.

Can you help with my compliance requirements?
