A perfect storm of events have come together and it is causing problems with the supply of tech equipment.
Our new video explains which you should be planning ahead and ordering things now that you may need in the next six months rather than the day before.
If your business uses computerised systems and let’s face it, most do, one of the biggest risks to it these days is ransomware. Hackers break into your IT systems and lock your files and hold your data to ransom.

Hackers take control of your computers, cloud accounts, network and encrypt all your data, making it unusable. They won’t undo the damage unless you pay a “ransom” fee.
They can do so much damage because they secretly break in to your system a long time before the attack is launched but you can keep an eye out for symptoms you’ve been breached and hopefully take back control before it is too late.
