The tricks may be over, but cyber scams are here to stay!
Our Spot the Fraud Challenge has come to an end, and it's time to reveal the winner!
Congratulations Jennie, on winning the $25 Amazon voucher! And thank you to everyone who took part.

Did you manage to spot all the red flags?

The phishing email contained:
- A slightly altered sender email address.
- Unexpected banking detail changes.
- Urgent pressure to make payment.
- Excuses to avoid normal verification procedures.
- Personal and company details used to appear legitimate.

The biggest lesson? Always verify unexpected payment requests and banking changes using a trusted contact number before transferring money.

Cybersecurity Awareness Month may be over, but staying alert shouldn't be seasonal.
LecsIT helps businesses stay ahead of threats with security awareness training and phishing simulations.

AI-powered scams are making it easier for criminals to impersonate executives, suppliers and clients. One convincing message could trigger a fraudulent payment, expose sensitive data or damage your business's reputation.

Don't let urgency override security.
✅Verify payment requests independently

They left 3 months ago…
The desk is empty
The laptop is gone

But tonight, someone logs into their account
Same username
Same password
Same access
They’re not supposed to be there

The employee is gone, but their access might still be haunting your systems.

It's midnight and you're a thief... 🎃

On one side of the street is a building locked up like Fort Knox.
On the other is a dark garage with a flickering bulb and a door that won't close.

Which one would you pick?

Cyber criminals think the same way. They don't waste time on the fortress. They go looking for the weak password, the unpatched computer, the email nobody thought twice about.

October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and all month we'll be sharing spooky safety tips and chances to win cool prizes. Follow LecsIT so you don't miss them.

Worried your business might be the garage? Visit www.lecsit.com or call us on 574 900 2957. Let's get your lights on and your doors locked before the monsters come knocking.

Stay safe this spooky season. 🦇

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.

Last week, I had the opportunity to attend an AIBMM (AI Business Maturity Model) summit as a coach, working alongside approximately 50 business owners looking to strengthen their understanding and application of AI.

The discussions covered everything from understanding the differences between AI models and when to use them, to exploring practical applications like AI-powered quoting and estimating in manufacturing.

One of the most rewarding parts? Seeing how business owners are already incorporating AI into their operations and learning from their innovative approaches. Every session is a reminder that growth goes both ways, we teach, we learn, and we continue to evolve together.

Still wondering where AI fits into your business?
Hands-on sessions like these are a great way to discover practical opportunities and turn AI from a buzzword into a valuable business tool.

The next summit is happening in October. Keep an eye out for more details!

We teamed up with Take Care, South Bend to put together a gift basket — and if you don't know them yet, you need to. They build gift baskets, care packages, and subscription boxes full of local goodies, and they actually care about where those goodies come from. Sustainability, inclusion, social justice — it's not just a tagline for them, it shows in what they do.

We filled ours with stuff from local vendors around the 'Bend, and sent it over to El Campito Child Development Center for their annual Taco Battle. 🌮 If you've never been, go — it's a blast, and it's for a great cause.

Honestly, this is the kind of thing that reminds us why we love doing business here. Local folks taking care of local folks.

Thank you, Take Care South Bend, for making this basket so good. And thank you, El Campito, for all you do for our kiddos. 💛

What a great turnout at the Taco Battle yesterday! Thank you so much for all your support.
