In our continuing efforts to help our clients automate system administration and enforce cybersecurity's best practices, Digital Edge’s skillful and experienced team worked hard to create a script that will scan your servers for the required patch ensuring the security of your servers. 

For over 2 years, Digital Edge has been working with the Panama Maritime Authority, developing and establishing a digitized platform. The project has proven to be very successful, making it easier to operate and administer the annual safety inspections of all its registered vessels.

Marriott International, a large American hotel chain, recently has had one of the largest breaches in history. This breach may have been prevented with a proper implementation of a cybersecurity system. Cybersecurity defenses protect against major attacks, ensuring no data loss. Implementing a cybersecurity system isn’t free, but the price of handling an attack is much greater.

You have your corporate email defenses lined up. While you may be using an out of the box product such as Microsoft O365 or something more sophisticated like ProofPoint – here is what you need to know.

Although you might be as safe and secure as possible you should still be aware of the vulnerablities that exist and can affect you.  

Unless users are restricted from using mobile email apps, there is nothing that can protect you. This risk extends even to disclosure of your corporate authentication.

By tomorrow, Hurricane Florence is expected to make landfall in North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia. With strong winds predicted up to 130 mph, the storm should make its first landfall by noon on Thursday, September 13, 2018. While the storm’s path is still progressing, over 1 million people are facing mandatory evacuations.

Over the past few days, the Digital Edge Disaster Recovery Team has been virtually migrating many of its Carolinian and Virginian clients with onsite systems to virtual servers in the New York Area. Digital Edge is ensuring that business data, backups, applications, and server images are safely stored off-site. If requested, Digital Edge can coordinate the process of moving any critical systems to our Cloud environment.  

If you feel that your business is in need of Digital Edge’s Disaster Recovery assistance in preparing for Hurricane Florence, please contact the Digital Edge team. 

You might’ve configured your email logging system incorrectly. How would you know until you got hacked? It’s fine -  you have cyber security insurance that will cover you right? WRONG. Recently, an undisclosed client experienced a major breach and was denied of their claim. Having cybersecurity insurance doesn't guarantee the safety net you might think it does -  not unless you meet the basic security guidelines.  Digital Edge’s Cybersecurity and Compliance experts are available to help you meet these standards in addition to protecting your infrastructure.
