FRESNO, California – Cody Sarhan, Communications Specialist

As temperatures soar, the threat to your business’s IT infrastructure rises. Picture your key systems overheating, crashing, and making your data inaccessible or worse — corrupted and gone forever.  All that sensitive data: financial accounts, personal information, software, and intellectual property… just gone. The fallout of even just a minor system blackout or shutdown could be catastrophic if a proper backup or off-site storage solution isn’t put into place.

How Rising Temperatures Increase Risk for Your Business

Excessive heat can lead to the overheating of your IT infrastructure. Servers, computers, and other critical hardware components are designed to operate within a specific temperature range. When temperatures soar, these systems can overheat, leading to unexpected shutdowns or permanent damage. Downtime caused by overheating can interrupt business operations, resulting in financial losses and reputational damage.

Heat waves can strain power grids, leading to blackouts and brownouts. These power disruptions can cause sudden system shutdowns, resulting in data loss and corruption. Without proper backup solutions, businesses risk losing crucial information. Additionally, power outages can compromise security systems, leaving networks exposed to unauthorized access.

Your Electric Vehicle is Watching: Why Privacy is the New Road Hazard

For most of us, driving has always felt like a small escape — a space where the outside world is shut out, and it’s just you, the open road, and maybe your favorite playlist. But today, that sense of privacy is more illusion than reality. Modern electric vehicles are quietly turning the driver’s seat into one of the most sophisticated data collection zones on the planet. And most people have no idea it’s happening.

Still Running Windows 10? Your Small Business May Be in Big Danger.

For small businesses, systems that quietly hum along in the background are the heartbeat of daily work. Invoices go out, payroll gets processed, customer orders are tracked, and emails keep the wheels turning. When those systems falter, even briefly, the ripple effect can throw a whole business off balance. Productivity drops, clients notice, employees scramble, and the costs — both time and money — stack up fast.

If You’re Not in the Cloud Yet, You’re Already Losing Customers

Let’s be blunt: if your business still hasn’t made the jump to the cloud, you’re officially behind the curve — and your competitors know it. According to CDW’s 2024 Cloud Computing Research Report, nearly half of all organizations have already moved at least half of their apps to the cloud. And by 2027? Most are expecting to run three-quarters or more of their workloads on cloud platforms. Leveraging the cloud is no longer a thing of the future — it’s the new baseline.

Are You Really Tipping 20%? Look Closer at Your Bill! Tipflation Exposed.

Tipping used to be simple. You got the bill, did some quick math, and left a little extra for good service. But now? Automated kiosks, preset tip suggestions, and confusing calculations have made it harder than ever to know what you’re actually paying. Some diners have started noticing that the numbers don’t always add up — sometimes, a 25% tip option turns out to be 38% when you do the math. Whether it’s an error, a system loophole, or something more deliberate, one thing is clear: if you’re not paying attention, you might be paying way more than you intended.

If Your Phone Gets Stolen, These Steps Could Save You!

Smartphone theft has escalated alarmingly. In San Francisco, for instance, a man was arrested for scamming elderly residents by sending fake phone notifications, leading to the theft of at least $64,000. Similarly, Los Angeles has witnessed a surge in property crimes, with reported burglaries and thefts slightly increasing this year. These incidents underscore the importance of being vigilant and proactive in protecting our devices.
