With the end of summer comes everyone’s favorite time, preparing budgets for next year. Okay, that’s not my favorite thing to do either, but it is an important process for businesses to complete. One thing to remember is that Microsoft’s extended support for Windows 7 and Server 2008 end in January 2020. You should plan on replacing any devices or servers running this software in 2019.

Something else to consider is reviewing your current network security status. Having a firewall in place and end point protection for your workstations is good, but there are other cyber threats that require additional prevention measures to be implemented.

If you would like to talk more about either of these topics, give us a call. We can assist in helping you budget appropriately for 2019 and beyond. Enjoy the last few days of summer!
