⭐️ TUESDAY TESTIMONIAL ⭐️

We've had the pleasure of working with Caron & Frank for quite a while now, and really appreciate the review 🥰

Yikes 😨

If you want to avoid the cost (and stress!) of a cyber breach, now's the time to make sure your cyber security is up to the job 💪

Contact us for a cyber security audit 📲 send a message or head to https://www.nqit.com.au/about-us/contact/

Meet Antony (aka. Ant 🐜), our Project Manager! Here’s a few things you should know about Ant…

🚵🏻 He’s a mad keen mountain biker (has even competed in the Mike Carney Toyota Paluma Push & the Triple-R Reef to Reef MTB)
🇳🇿 Originally from NZ (but we won’t hold that against him)
✈️ Is looking forward to his next overseas trip. Ant & his wife have had a France/Italy/Switzerland trip on their bucket list for years!
💵 Much of his career has been in Finance & Banking, but Ant wanted a change of pace. His love of technology saw him become an IT Manager, then a contractor, and then he & Ed met and eventually joined forces to form NQIT.
⚙️ He’s a self-confessed “tinkerer” – which is why he loves IT project management, it lets him get stuck into a project so he can tinker around and find the best solution
👨🏻‍🎤 He has an eclectic taste in music, but favourites would have to be Nightwish and Sabaton

𝗘𝗱'𝘀 🔝 𝗧𝗶𝗽 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵: don't bother forking out $$ for cyber insurance ❌

In Ed's experience, paying cyber insurance only provides a false sense of security. He's never heard of one successful cyber insurance claim (although he would love a good news story!)

Instead, invest in cyber security. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝘆𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗣𝗥𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡.

Meet Celeste, our amazing "Tech Two"! (i.e. Level 2 IT Technician ) 👋

🍽️ Celeste's working background has largely been in hospitality / management - but she was after a change of pace and joined us almost two years ago... lucky for us!
👩🏻‍💻 Since then Celeste discovered she loves IT (woohoo!), particularly that she gets to solve problems every day
🏃🏻‍♀️ In her down time, Celeste loves to go for a run (especially a cheeky 🍺)
🎮 She's also a lil obsessed with playing Animal Crossing...
🧩 ... and loves Lego! (watch out !)
🎥 Celeste also enjoys a Tim Burton flick, her fave is 'The Nightmare Before Christmas'

⚠️ 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐬𝐚𝐟𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐬𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐬?⚠️ If there's one change you should implement 𝐭𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐲 to protect your business, it's this: make sure NO ONE is using their personal passwords to log into your systems! 🙅 (you'd be surprised how often this happens!)

Hackers are clever. If your personal profile is hacked, it's usually an easy Google to figure out where you work - inviting the hacker to try to crack into the business 🔓

Ed's 🔝 tip is to implement a company-wide policy: no personal passwords allowed!
