Don't forget to change your passwords regularly. Just recently a client got hacked and it costs a lot of nerves, money and stress to repair the damage. Make your passwords hard to hack.
I summed up some rules for you to make it easier:

separation & the extra pain of IT fraulein tech

the advantage of computer training
today i like to write a little bit about my favourite subject: computer training on the job:
in my 20+ years on various IT service desks, i experienced regularly employees without adequate computer training are stressed and wasting a lot of time to find solutions on their own.
a general training like 'MS word advanced' covers most of the time too much content, the employee comes back at his/her desk and can't implement the new gained knowledge because the desktop looks difference, the file structure is more complicated, templates are missing etc. etc.
the transfer of the know-how into the day-to-day tasks is often frustrating. that means that a lot of money and time spend by the employer is wasted...
computer training on the job might be the solution: i will first have a look at the IT set up in the company, talk to the staff and manager about the tasks that seem to be too inefficient solved by the systems, and the goals that want to be achieved. i will tailor a training program for the employee, held on their desk while doing day-to-day tasks. we may create short cuts, templates etc. right there on the spot. afterwards the employee will get a document summarising the information learned that day. these training sessions take maximum 3 hours. a couple of weeks later another session will be scheduled to answer further questions, deepening the gained knowledge and assess the further need of training areas.
please feel free to contact me if you think that might a solution for your office.

The cloud is everywhere and it is so handy. When set up properly, you never have to worry again about broken hard drives, lost phones and computer failure. The cloud will have a backup of what is precious to you. Choosing the right provider for your needs, setting up everything with low maintenance and the cloud is a wonderful thing.

Keys, pins, passwords, IDs, certificates.... we all have to remember so many information to get access to our emails, music, money, information, subscriptions.... absolutely overwhelming.

But never leave it to another person to administer your access data. I see it often that after separation from the partner important and priceless data are lost as passwords are unknown and can’t be recovered. Or worse the partner is using the extra knowledge as a power tool.

Please feel free to contact me on advise how to administer your data safe and easy. I am happy to sit down with your, assess your situation and recommend a tailored solution that suit your needs.

Today hardly any household is without computer, smart phone, tablet, even the TV is smart nowadays (the broadcast intelligence might be debatable though).

I see regular clients who suddenly are left alone with the task to manage all these setups, data and devices. And I am glad to make their life easier with uncomplicated setups and easy to follow manuals.
