Internet Security & Your Business

Spencer Technology Solutions, Roanoke’s premier IT Consultant group,  has been invited to speak at the Virginia Medical Group Management Association’s State Conference titled “Solving the Mystery of Today’s Medical Practice ” on Monday, March 14, 2011 at 2:00 PM at the Boars Head Inn in Charlottsville, VA.  

 Matt Spencer, President of Spencer Technology Solutions,  will be discussing Internet Security for businesses.  I am sure that most of you know that in the medical field, it is extremely important to have security because of HIPPA laws and the confidentiality of the medical data, but did you know that Internet security is becoming increasingly important for all businesses?  Why ? — I am so glad you asked. 

Unfortunately, Internet security is becoming a necessity in all types of business’s because employees abuse the internet in so many ways, from Facebook games to Pornography, employees browse hundreds of websites per week. Have you wondered when people have the time to play “Farmville” and the other latest Facebook games — guess what they are playing them on the job.  So while your employees are preventing their crops from wilting in Farmville, you are seeing less and less productivity.  Some employees even spend time looking for other jobs, and reading classified ads while on the clock.  Many of these sites that are visited by employees are laced with viruses that can damage your business’ computers, cause them to freeze up, run slower, and eventually need costly repair.  Not to mention all the money you are losing on the wasted time and productivity of your employees. 

For more information on Internet Security, and the various options available to you to combat this problem join us at the VMGMA conference in Charlottsville, or give us a call at 540-815-9397 and let us schedule a consultation to help you analyze your business’s needs, and the best way to handle your security issues.   Remember Spencer Technology Solutions is here to meet all your IT needs, give us a call today, and see what we can do for you.
