Small businesses must concentrate their time and energy on knowing their own industry — and that often means that effective technology practices get overlooked. Erik Eckel over at Tech Republic explains the most common tech missteps he’s encountered, along with preventive measures to protect businesses and prevent serious problems.
“In today’s microwave society — in which just-in-time manufacturing models, heightened customer expectations, and 24×7 accessibility demands burden both manufacturers and service providers — little time remains for much else. Small businesses often don’t have the resources or inclination to track the latest computer news, security threats, or even common break/fix tips. And not all small business owners are adept at maintaining best technology practices.”
The ten mistakes that Eric explains in his article are the following:
- Insufficient technical support
- Hardware/software issues
- Insufficient power protection
- Illegal software
- Insufficient training
- Security failures
- Poor backup strategies
- Virus exposure
- Spyware exposure
- Unsolicited E-mail AKA SPAM
