October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and here’s the one thing worth knowing: the old advice for spotting a scam doesn’t work anymore.

We used to say watch for typos, bad grammar, a logo that looks off. AI writes clean now, so none of that holds. The fake login pages don’t even copy the real site anymore, and a convincing phone call can be made from a few seconds of someone’s voice.

You can’t catch these by how they look. What works is checking on your own: read the web address before you type a password, deny a login you didn’t start, and call a number you already had before you ever move money.

We put together a short video and a one-page tip sheet on all of it. Keep it at your desk or share it with your team:

A sign-in page loads for your email. The logo is right, the layout is right, you type your password, approve the prompt on your phone, and your inbox opens.

Advanced Technology Partners has been named a finalist in the 2026 MSP Titans of the Industry Awards!🌟

We started this company because small and mid-sized businesses in our region deserve the same quality of IT support that large companies get. Being recognized nationally says we're getting that right.

It comes down to our team who shows up for our clients every day, and the clients who let us do the work. Thank you to both💙

That employee who "handles the computer stuff" on the side?💻 It's not free, it's just costing you in ways nobody's tracking.

We broke down what that arrangement could really be costing you on our blog.💸

MFA (the "enter a code" login step) was a huge security win a few years ago, but attackers have gotten good at tricking people into approving fraudulent logins anyway.⚠️

The good news: there's a next step, and it's not complicated! Passkeys make it so there's nothing for an attacker to steal or trick you into handing over.🔐

We break it all down on our blog:

In 2003, a manager at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) named Bill Burr wrote the guidance that shaped password policy for the next
