⏰ BC Businesses: Your clocks aren't changing this weekend, but your computers might!

For the first time, most of British Columbia will not turn clocks back on November 1, 2026. We're staying on Pacific Time (UTC−7) year-round.

Sounds simple, right? Not necessarily for your IT systems.

💻 Computers running outdated Windows updates or time zone settings could still automatically fall back one hour.
This could affect:
🔹 Computer and server clocks
🔹 Outlook calendars and scheduled meetings
🔹 Automated backups and business applications
🔹 Time-sensitive business operations

What should businesses do?

Make sure your computers are up to date and using the correct BC time zone settings.

At DataStream Networks, we're proactively reviewing this change and its potential impact on the businesses we support.

Because one of our core values is simple:

Prevent the Preventable.

🚨 Is your business still running Windows Server 2016? It’s time to plan ahead.

Microsoft has announced that Windows Server 2016 will reach the end of extended support on January 12, 2027.

What does this mean for your business? Without ongoing security updates, your servers could become more vulnerable to emerging cybersecurity threats.

🔐 Here’s how to prepare:
✅ Review your current server infrastructure.
✅ Plan your upgrade before support ends.
✅ Ensure your business data and systems remain protected.
✅ Work with a trusted IT partner to make the transition as smooth as possible.

At DataStream Networks, we believe proactive IT planning is key to keeping your business secure, connected, and running smoothly.

💻 Not sure where to start? Let's talk!

Our team can assess your existing servers and business applications, identify potential risks, and walk you through your upgrade or cloud migration options. We'll help you develop a practical plan that fits your business needs and budget.

📞 Contact DataStream Networks today to schedule a server and application assessment.

Cybersecurity is a team sport, and everyone is on the roster.
Winning teams don't guess at positions. Here's who plays where:

Employees: the players making real-time calls every day
Leadership: the coaching staff setting the tone
Your IT partner: the strategist keeping the playbook current

One weak link impacts the whole team. Make sure everyone knows their position.

🚨 SECURITY BULLETIN: PHP2Shell Vulnerability

🔒 Is your website protected against PHP2Shell?

A critical security issue known as PHP2Shell has been identified in PHP, a technology used by many websites and web applications. If exploited, these vulnerabilities could allow attackers to execute malicious code on affected servers without logging in.

What should your business do?

🛡️ Ensure your website’s PHP environment has been updated with the appropriate security patches.

🔍 Review your website’s software versions and confirm its security status with your hosting provider or IT team.

⚠️ Don’t assume your website is safe just because it appears to be working normally. Vulnerabilities can exist without obvious signs.

💻 Check your website: https://checkmyphp.com

This tool provides a quick look at publicly visible PHP and WordPress versions, helping you identify potential issues that may need further investigation. Please note that it is an initial check, not a complete security assessment.

At DataStream Networks, we encourage businesses to stay proactive about cybersecurity and keep their systems up to date.

📩 Have questions about your website’s security? Reach out to our team. We’re here to help.

Think you know the basics of cybersecurity? You might be surprised.

October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and some of the most common beliefs about cybersecurity are also some of the most dangerous. When myths go unchallenged, they create blind spots that criminals are quick to exploit.

This month, we're setting the record straight.

Think your business might have a blind spot? Schedule a free 10-minute discovery call today.

⏰ Hitting snooze buys you a few more minutes. It doesn’t make the alarm go away.

Neither does putting off that IT problem your team keeps working around.

The slow computer everyone knows takes forever to start. The recurring issue that gets “fixed” with another restart. The workaround that somehow became part of someone’s daily routine.

The work may still be getting done, but every restart, delay and workaround takes a little more time out of someone’s day.
Eventually, you have to turn off the alarm and deal with what keeps waking you up.

What technology issue has your team been putting up with for way too long? Tell us below. 👇
