Your IT person quits, who has the admin password?

Many clients that come to us have zero IT documentation. One client’s previous provider left them without passwords, a network map or any record of who set up what. They owned every system. Only one outside person knew how to run them.

Wahaya has provided outsourced IT in Baton Rouge since 2003. Our engineers start documenting a new client’s environment on day one: every device, license and vendor, written down. The record belongs to the client, and any engineer on our team can pick up where the last one left off.

Swipe through the five things to check first, then count how many you can find in ten minutes.

Baton Rouge business owners: if your website runs on WordPress, it runs on PHP.

On October 21, PHP released emergency fixes for two critical vulnerabilities, nicknamed PHP2Shell. Either one can let attackers run code on a website’s server without logging in.

Our engineers patched affected systems across our managed environment the same morning. Our clients didn’t have to ask.

Not sure whether your website is protected? Our engineers can verify your PHP version and tell you the right next step.

Baton Rouge business owners: ask for your next IT quote itemized.

Four things set what managed IT services cost: your users and devices, your software plan, your security tools, and the rules your business follows. A quote with one monthly number hides all four.

At Wahaya, each one sits on its own line with its own price, and every agreement runs month to month. When someone leaves, their seat comes off the next bill.

Which line on your current IT bill could you explain today?

We handed a stranger an employee’s access card and let him walk through a client’s building. Nobody stopped him.

The client asked for the test. Their leadership was sure someone would speak up. We watched on their own cameras. Nobody did.

At Wahaya, security starts at the front door. We lock server rooms and put cameras on the doors that matter, then run this test to show our clients the gap before a real stranger finds it.

Hire one employee and your business has compliance rules to follow.

Their Social Security number is on your computer. Louisiana law says you have to protect it, wipe old records for good and tell people within 60 days if the data gets out. Miss the deadline to notify the state and fines can reach $5,000 a day.

At Wahaya, we find where that data lives, put the protections in place and keep the records that show it's protected.

It's Cybersecurity Awareness Month.

We build that into our clients' accounts. If someone in another country signs in with your work password, the account locks. We keep a list of the countries you work from, and the account stays locked until we confirm it's you.

Going abroad on vacation? Tell us before you fly and we'll add the country.

Filled out a form about your computers this year? That was an audit.

Your insurance renewal and your card processor both want proof that your business is protected.

Wahaya clients have that proof on file. We train their staff every year and report each person's score. We back up everything from day one and check who can change settings on their computers.

Which form did you fill out last?

Take cards? Look for "PCI non-compliance" on your merchant statement.

The processor adds it every month the yearly compliance form isn't on file. We've seen it at $250 a month next to a compliance fee of about $30. File the form and it comes off.

Is it on this month's statement?

Microsoft is changing six things in Microsoft 365 between now and November. Two are due this month, and one of those has a fixed day: September 30.

Microsoft sends these notices to whoever manages your IT. You find out when something changes.

The six are in the pictures below, one per picture. The last picture has the question to ask your IT provider before the 30th.
