WCI Technology Solutions

WCI Technology Solutions Early on, Bill envisioned a business world in which ALL companies had the same technical abilities regardless of business size. Air Force.

WCI Technology Solutions is a MSP, MID, and MSSP provider for small to medium size family owned businesses with an emphasis in Raymond James offices and manufacturing and distribution companies. In 1989, Bill Wright, owner and founder of WCI Technology Solutions realized that small and medium sized businesses (under 100 computers) were at a HUGE disadvantage when compared to large businesses. Litt

le did Bill know just how accurate his vision was! Today single person companies are competing against their goliath-sized competitors … and winning! No longer does the mere size, or lack thereof, of a business matter. In many ways, customers prefer working with the smaller local business, because of better service and accountability. Bill spent several years as a Civilian Electrical Engineer with the U.S. This was where Bill first noticed how much faster, and more efficiently, a smaller company (with the same technological abilities) was. Although he really liked what he was doing with the Air Force, Bill wanted to move to the private sector and begin working towards his vision of what he termed ‘level technology’. The opportunity to pursue full time, this vision, happened in 1991 on a dark Friday night during a summer thunderstorm, with more than half of his family’s belongings on a moving truck, 8 months pregnant with their first child. Around 10 PM, with thunder and lightning in the background, the Indy 500 Racing Team that Bill was working for decided to change everything. Bill needed to decide to follow the new direction of the Race Team or pursue his vision. He decided to follow his vision and help local business realize the benefits of ‘level technology’, helping his clients compete against their biggest competitors. Long before ‘QuickBooks’ (which Bill is a Certified ProAdvisor), he realized that his clients needed to be able to keep track of inventory, billing and purchases just like the ‘big companies’ … on a computer. During the 1990’s Bill was recognized by an international accounting software developing firm as one of the top consultants in the U.S., providing support on implementation, training and trouble shooting.

Bill possesses a unique ability to understand, and explain in non-technical ways how technology, business and employees work with, and sometimes, against each other. His degrees in Electrical Engineering and Business Management allow him to understand both how technology works at the basic conceptual level and among the components involved and how it interacts with hardware, software, networking, people … and, how a business works. Bill is much more than just a ‘tech-geek’ though. Bill plays clarinet and sings tenor in several community music groups and choirs. Bill also directs a Hand Bell Choir and has directed a Christian Rock Band. When not working or performing somewhere, Bill resides in Pickerington, Ohio with his wife, Robin, their two children, Drew and Zoë and their dogs, Pumpkin and Libby.

Security Alert - Extremely Tricky Phishing Attack

This is a special alert because of the nature of a newly detected phishing attack. Hackers have found a way to use legitimate sites such as Dropbox and DocuSign to lure you into opening documents with malicious links designed to steal credentials.

This attack is particularly tricky because it relies on sites you consider safe and, therefore, they’re more likely to fool even a seasoned professional. Also, it is unlikely to appear in your web filter blocklists. By using legitimate sites, attackers instill a false sense of security in users who recognize these companies as familiar.

The key to success with this threat is clear and constant communication with your team and having regular cyber security assessments.

Your organization may already be seeing these emails sneaking right past your spam folder and making it directly to your inbox. With the impact and simplicity of this phishing tactic, we expect a surge in the number of these attacks.

You don’t have to deal with this alone. Take the first step towards stronger security and contact us to schedule a thorough cyber security assessment to see if you’re vulnerable to this type of attack. Immediate action is important so find out today how we can fortify your network defenses.

SECURITY ALERT – Dangerous WordPress Issue Discovered

Imagine this: Your new potential client is visiting your website for the first time, eager to learn more about you and your company. Now instead of seeing your company logo and phone number they are directed to a p**n site. Or even worse, picture the damage that could be caused if an attacker sent that client to a different site that looks just like yours, but instead is used to steal all their sensitive data.

A dangerous issue with WordPress has been discovered, and if you do not address it, the above stories could happen to you. If exploited, this plugin vulnerability could enable hackers to gain control of your site with a single web request.

With the severity and ease of this WordPress vulnerability, we anticipate a significant surge in these exact scenarios soon.

Ahh, we cannot stress this tip enough. Paying to recover from a data breach is so much more expensive, stressful, and time-consuming than preventing one.

In fact, most businesses are never able to recover once they’ve been breached. Do yourself a favor, and if you don’t have proper cybersecurity systems in place, start by talking to an IT expert.

We will do a FREE Cybersecurity Assessment for you to help you determine if you are currently vulnerable to an attack and what you should do next.

Your devices contain a lot of sensitive information, which could fall into the wrong hands if it’s not disposed of properly.

Wipe all devices clean before throwing them away or donating them to prevent anyone from rebooting them and stealing any remaining information.

What early phones did you have?

The classic flip phone? The slide? The Razer?

It was less important to make sure to erase data back then, but today it’s a big risk. Make sure you take the right precautions.
