  5. Cyber Resilience Centre Interview with Simon Bridge
18 March 2021

We at Redpalm are proud to announce our Co-CEO, Simon Bridge, has been featured in The Cyber Resilience Centre’s Spotlight series.
Here’s a little snippet from the interview:

“Q: Besides Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus, what should businesses be doing to mitigate cyber threats?

No organisation is ever 100% safe from a cyber attack.
However what you can do, is be prepared by implementing and performing regular testing of your backup and DR (disaster recovery) solutions.
In the event you do experience a hack or data breach, it is essential you can recover all your data and systems.”

    Is Your Business Ready for the PSTN Switch From Analogue Phone Lines to VoIP?

    The UK’s PSTN switch-off means businesses still relying on traditional analogue lines need to prepare for digital alternatives such as VoIP before January 2027. Migration involves more than replacing desk phones. Organisations should identify every service that depends on analogue lines, assess connectivity and resilience, review security and allow enough time to migrate and test replacement systems.

    Why Cheap Break-Fix IT Support Is Costing Your Business More Than Fully Managed Services

    Break-fix IT support may appear cheaper initially, but recurring outages, lost productivity and preventable security risks often increase the true cost. Managed IT services provide proactive monitoring, maintenance and support that help reduce downtime, improve business resilience and give organisations more predictable IT costs as they grow.

    Cyber Essentials Plus is not mandatory for most UK organisations, but it provides independently verified assurance that cyber security controls are working effectively.
