A phishing email can end up in your calendar.

Attackers are sending fake meeting invitations containing malicious links and phone numbers.

Depending on your calendar settings, the invitation may be added automatically. Even if the original email is filtered or deleted, the calendar entry can remain and show a reminder later.

The reminder might claim that a subscription has renewed, an invoice is overdue or an account needs attention.

If you don’t recognise a meeting, don’t use the link or phone number inside it. Check who sent it and contact the company through its official website if you think the message could be genuine.

If unexpected appointments have started appearing in your team’s calendars, reach out and we can check how external invitations are being handled.

Some free VPNs make money by letting other people send traffic through your internet connection.

Google recently took down a large network that used devices running apps advertised as free VPNs.

While the VPN worked, the app also allowed other customers' internet traffic to pass through the device.

On a work laptop, that traffic would appear to come from your company's public IP address. Your IP could get blocked because of activity nobody in the business carried out.

Google also found that some of this software could expose other devices on the same network.

Check which VPNs and browser extensions are installed on company devices. Staff should use the VPN provided by the business, not one they found online because it was free.

Want to know whether unapproved VPNs or proxy software are installed on your company devices? Reach out and we can check for you.

Don't trust hotel Wi-Fi. It can be compromised even when you've joined the correct network.

Microsoft has found attackers taking control of the systems used for Wi-Fi login pages at hotels and conference venues.

Once the login system has been compromised, guests can be redirected to a fake Microsoft 365 sign-in page or shown a fake browser update that installs malware.

The timing makes the request believable. You've just connected, the hotel page opens and it says an update is needed before you can continue.

Checking the network name with reception won't help because the hotel's real Wi-Fi is involved.

Use your phone's hotspot for work whenever possible. If you have to use hotel Wi-Fi, never enter your work password into the hotel registration page.

And if the page asks you to download an update, certificate or security tool, disconnect. Joining Wi-Fi shouldn't require you to install anything.

If your staff travel with work laptops, send us a message before their next trip. We'll make sure the devices are properly protected.

By default, a Microsoft account will accept a login attempt from anywhere in the world.

Most attacks on Microsoft accounts come from overseas, from automated tools trying stolen passwords by the thousand. If your business only works in one or two countries, there's no reason to allow a login from anywhere else.

There's a setting in Microsoft 365 called Conditional Access that lets you block any login from outside the countries you operate in. Someone trying your password from the other side of the world is turned away, even if the password is right.

It won't stop everything, and a determined attacker can route through your country to get past it. But it blocks the flood of automated attempts from places you'll never deal with, and that's most of what you're up against.

You'll need the right Microsoft plan, and it's set up in the admin area, so ask your IT provider to turn it on and set the countries you work in.

When you log into a new tool with your Google account instead of making a fresh password, you're tying that tool to your Google login. Do it enough times and one account controls all of them.

It's quick, so most people click it without thinking.

The trouble starts if someone gets into that Google account. They get your email, and every app you logged into with it, in one go.

Google itself is a risk here too. If it ever suspends or locks your account, you can lose all those apps at once, and getting a Google account back is famously hard.

So, for anything your business relies on, give it its own login and password, with two factor turned on.

And put strong security on the Google account itself, since so much now runs through it.

Everyone's downloading AI tools at the moment, and scammers have caught on.

Say someone on your team wants to try a new AI app. They search for it, click the top
result, and end up on a page that looks like the real company's site. They download
the app. It's fake, and it steals every password saved on their computer.

The fake sites are hard to spot because they copy the real ones closely, and the link is
often an ad shown above the real website in the results.

Security firms have reported a lot more of this over the past year.

Only download software by going to the company's real website yourself, not by
clicking an ad or a search result. If a page asks you to install something and you're
not sure it's real, don't. And it helps to agree as a team on which AI tools you use, so
people aren't installing unknown ones to try them out.

Microsoft has installed Copilot on business computers automatically.

It's worth getting your files in order before you use it.

Copilot can see any file the person using it can already open.

In most businesses, that's a lot more than it should be.

Files get shared with "everyone" for convenience. Folders get opened up for a project and never closed again. It piles up over the years, and no one notices, because no one goes looking through it all.

Once Copilot is in the mix, people don't have to go looking. They ask a question, and it answers using anything it's allowed to see, including files that were left open to the whole company by mistake.

So, before you let the team use it, get someone to check your file permissions, starting with HR and finance. People should only be able to see what they need to.

If you open an email attachment that looks like an image and it asks you to log in, close it.

There's a phishing trick going around this year that hides inside picture files, and it gets past the filters most businesses rely on.

It uses a file type called SVG. It's an image format, but unlike a normal photo, it can carry code inside it.

Someone double-clicks the attachment expecting a picture. Instead it opens in their browser, runs, and sends them to a fake Microsoft login page built for their exact email.

The email system lets it through because, as far as it can tell, it's just an image. Researchers flagged a wave of these in early June.

A picture should never send you to a login screen. So if you open an attachment and it asks for your password, don't type it in.

And be careful with any image you weren't expecting, especially one ending in .svg.

People almost never send those on purpose.

Ask your IT provider to block SVG attachments. Hardly any business needs to receive them, so blocking them costs you nothing.

Whoever controls your domain name controls your whole business.

Your domain is the address behind your website and your email. It sits in an account at whatever company you registered it with, like GoDaddy.

Anyone who can log into that account can point your website and email wherever they like.

At a lot of small businesses, nobody knows who has that login. It was set up years ago by a web guy who's long gone, or it's under one staff member's personal email with a password that hasn't changed since.

If someone gets into that account, they don't need to hack anything else.

They can send your website visitors to a fake page that still shows your real address.

They can take over your email and reset the passwords on everything tied to it.

They can send your clients an invoice from your real address, and your clients will pay it, because it came from you.

So go and check who controls the account, whether it's got two-factor login switched on, and whether the domain lock is turned on, which stops anyone moving your domain elsewhere.

While you're in there, set it to auto-renew so it can't expire.

If you deleted a OneDrive file recently and went looking for it in your Recycle Bin… surprise, it's not there.

Starting in May 2026, files deleted from OneDrive or SharePoint in the cloud no longer appear in your local Recycle Bin or Trash.

They are removed directly from your device and can only be recovered from the OneDrive or SharePoint web‑based recycle bin.
1. Go to onedrive.com or your SharePoint site
2. Click "Recycle bin" in the left menu
3. Right-click the file and select "Restore"

You typically have 30 days before files move to the second‑stage recycle bin (which most people don’t know about), and up to 93 more days there, depending on your organization’s settings.

After about 123 days, they’re gone for good.
