👻 Have you been ghosted by your IT?

You submitted a ticket.
You followed up.
You followed up on your follow-up.

At this point, even the ghosts are more responsive. 💀

IT problems are scary enough. Getting support shouldn't be.

Good IT support means showing up, communicating clearly, and actually solving the problem.

No disappearing acts. Just dependable IT support.

A phone call from "IT" could be the start of an account takeover.

On October 28, the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security warned about an ongoing campaign targeting Canadian organizations through fake IT support calls.

Attackers are using convincing sign-in pages to bypass conventional MFA and gain access to business accounts.

For small businesses, the takeaway is clear: MFA matters, but so does verifying who's requesting access or account changes.

Our latest article explains how the attack works and three security practices worth reviewing.

Cyber Security Awareness Month ends this week. Your security practices shouldn't.

October puts cybersecurity in the spotlight. But protecting a business depends on what happens during the other 11 months of the year.

For small businesses, that doesn't have to mean complicated processes. A few consistent practices can make a meaningful difference.

𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐡 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫:

𝟏. 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐬𝐮𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲.
Unexpected MFA prompts, unusual login notifications and requests for verification codes should be reported immediately. Employees should know exactly who to contact.

𝟐. 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬.
Check that employees have access only to the systems they need. Remove accounts and permissions that are no longer required, particularly after someone leaves or changes roles.

𝟑. 𝐊𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐝𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐨𝐟𝐭𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐮𝐩𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝.
Security updates help address known vulnerabilities. Make sure updates are completed, including on devices that aren't regularly connected to the office network.

𝟒. 𝐌𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐜𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧.
A short reminder during team meetings can reinforce good habits. Employees should feel comfortable reporting mistakes or suspicious activity without fear of blame.

For business owners, here's a useful question to ask before October ends:

Does everyone on your team know what to do and who to contact when something suspicious happens?

Cybersecurity awareness shouldn't end with a campaign. It should become part of how your business operates.

Your website runs on software too. Who's updating it?

On October 21, the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security issued an alert about critical vulnerabilities in PHP, software that helps power many business websites, including those built with WordPress.

Security updates are available, but the alert raises a broader question for small businesses: 𝐖𝐡𝐨 𝐢𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐰𝐞𝐛𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐞?

A website isn't just its design and content. Behind it are the hosting server, software, and plugins that need regular maintenance and security updates.

When these are overlooked, vulnerabilities can put a business at risk of website disruption, unauthorized access, or compromised customer information.

For small business owners, there are three things worth checking:

Who manages your website's security updates? Your web developer, hosting provider, or IT team?

Is your website running affected software? Ask your provider to check the PHP version and confirm that applicable security updates and mitigations are in place.

Is ongoing security maintenance included in your agreement? Website hosting and website security aren't necessarily the same service.

The Cyber Centre also warns that PHP vulnerabilities may affect other software products, not just websites.

You don't need to manage these updates yourself. But you should know who does.

Not sure who's responsible for your website's security?

TeckPath can help you review your website's security and identify potential gaps in maintenance and protection.

Windows Server 2016 reaches end of support on January 12, 2027 just 11 weeks away.

For businesses still using it, the priority isn't simply replacing an old server. It's understanding which applications, files and business operations depend on it.

We've outlined what changes after the deadline and five practical steps businesses can take now.

Read our latest article to see what your business should check before January.

Your website is working.

Your contact form works.

Your online store is taking orders.

That does not mean your website is secure.

Two critical PHP vulnerabilities can allow attackers to run code on affected web servers without logging in.

For a business owner, that could mean exposed customer information, interrupted sales, and a reputation you have spent years building put at risk.

• 𝑌𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝐼𝑇 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑣𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑟?

If everyone assumes someone else handled it, you have a gap.

And updating WordPress or its plugins does not, by itself, confirm the PHP underneath has been patched.

Your business should not have to choose between keeping its website running and addressing a security threat.

Message us “PHP” to arrange a TeckPath exposure review.

And ask your provider for confirmation of the fix not reassurance that the website still loads.

A verification code can be genuine, even when the person asking for it isn't.

Scammers can trigger a legitimate one-time code, then call or message you pretending to be from IT, your bank, or a trusted service provider.

Their goal is simple: convince you to share the code so they can access your account.

Remember: A code arriving on your phone doesn't mean the person requesting it is legitimate.

Never share a verification code with someone who contacts you unexpectedly. End the conversation and verify the request through an official channel.

Swipe through to learn how this scam works and what your team can do to prevent it.

Shared passwords are common in small businesses. They end up in spreadsheets, group chats, or sticky notes because they're convenient and the work gets done.

But convenience doesn't always mean control.

When several people use the same login, it becomes difficult to know who accessed what or made changes. And when employees leave or change roles, access can remain active longer than it should.

A password policy helps businesses address these gaps. It should establish where credentials are stored, who can access them, and how that access is managed when responsibilities change.

Individual accounts are the better option wherever possible. When shared credentials are unavoidable, a business password manager, appropriate access controls, and a clear offboarding process can help reduce the risk. Multi-factor authentication (MFA) adds another layer of protection.

Good access management doesn't have to be complicated. But it does need to be consistent.

October is Cyber Security Awareness Month, making it a good opportunity to review how your business manages access.

Do you know who has access to your shared business accounts right now?

Do you know which tools let someone remotely access your company’s computers?

Remote-support tools help IT teams fix problems without a site visit and let software vendors troubleshoot their products. But they can accumulate over time: one installed during a support call, another left behind by a previous IT provider, or one an employee downloaded when they needed help.

Each one is a door.

Each approved tool should have a named owner, be kept up to date, use strong sign-in controls, and have its access logged. A forgotten tool may have none of those safeguards.

TeamViewer’s September 29 security bulletin addressed five vulnerabilities. The company reported no known active exploitation at the time—a reminder that remote-support tools need updating like any other software.

It’s also a reason to ask:

1. Which remote-access tools are on our company devices?

2. Who manages each one, and who is allowed to use it?

3. Which ones do we no longer need?

And when you change IT providers or end a vendor relationship, revoking their remote access belongs on the offboarding checklist.

When did your organization last review remote access to its computers?
