Before inviting an AI meeting assistant into your next call, it is worth asking what exactly your new digital coworker plans to remember.

Many AI meeting tools can record audio, create transcripts, summarize conversations, and store everything in the provider’s cloud account. Helpful? Absolutely. Potentially a treasure chest of confidential information? Also yes.

Those recordings may include customer details, contracts, employee conversations, financial information, or internal plans that were never meant to become permanent meeting notes.

Set some ground rules:
▶️ Decide which AI meeting assistants employees may use
▶️ Define which meetings they can join
▶️ Know where recordings and transcripts are stored
▶️ Control who can access them
▶️ Set a retention period so recordings do not live forever
▶️ Tell everyone on the call before recording or transcribing

Because “the AI took notes” should not also mean “the AI kept everything forever.”

Need help deciding which AI meeting tools are appropriate for your business? Reach out and we can help set clear rules.

Security questionnaires are becoming part of the sales process, and nothing says “fun afternoon” like 47 questions about MFA, backups, encryption, and incident response.

Be ready before one lands in your inbox:
▶️ Keep policies, insurance documents, test results, and other evidence in one place
▶️ Answer honestly—do not check “yes” because it sounds nicer
▶️ Track anything that is missing, who owns the fix, and when it will be done

A good questionnaire can actually help you spot gaps before a customer—or an attacker—does.

Received one you are not sure how to answer? Send it to us. We can help with the technical questions, supporting evidence, and any missing security measures.

Do you know exactly which laptops, phones, tablets, and network devices your company owns—or is your inventory system currently “I think Dave has that one”?

A good device inventory should track:
▶️ Device type, manufacturer, model, and serial number
▶️ Who has it or where it is located
▶️ Purchase date, warranty, and replacement timeline
▶️ Whether encryption and remote lock/wipe are enabled
▶️ Whether the device is active, being repaired, stored, or retired

Update the list whenever equipment is issued, returned, replaced, or disposed of.

Because “we lost track of that laptop two years ago” is not a sentence anyone wants to hear during an audit.

Need help building a clean inventory and spotting unsupported or overdue devices? We can help.

After you give a website or app permission to use your camera or microphone, that access can stick around long after you forgot about it.

On Windows, the camera light or notification shows when the camera is active, and a microphone icon appears when something is listening. Helpful little clues that say, “Hey, just so you know…”

Take a minute to review camera and microphone permissions under Privacy & Security in Windows Settings, and check your browser’s site permissions too.

Remove access from apps and websites that no longer need it.

Because “I allowed that once” should not mean “welcome back anytime.”

Want help reviewing camera and microphone permissions across your company computers? We can help clean up access that no longer belongs there.

A stolen business check can be altered and deposited before anyone realizes it has gone rogue.

That is where Positive Pay can help. Many banks offer it as a fraud-control service that compares checks presented for payment against the details your business already provided.

The bank can check things like:
▶️ Check number
▶️ Dollar amount
▶️ Payee name, depending on the service

If something does not match, the bank flags it and lets your business decide whether to pay or return it.

Think of it as a bouncer for your checking account: “Your name’s not on the list.”

Ask your bank whether it offers Positive Pay, what information it verifies, and how quickly flagged checks need to be reviewed.

An IT budget based only on last year’s invoices can leave out a few expensive surprises—like new computers, new hires, software increases, and planned projects.

A good IT budget should look ahead, not just in the rearview mirror.

Never change an employee’s payroll bank account based on email alone. That is how “quick payroll update” turns into “why did Steve’s paycheck just go to a stranger?”

Attackers can send the request from a hacked mailbox or create a lookalike address that is convincing enough to fool someone in a hurry.

Before changing bank details:
▶️ Call the employee using the number already in your HR records
▶️ Or verify the request in person
▶️ Never use a phone number provided in the email
▶️ Require a second person to approve the change
▶️ Record how the request was verified

Because payroll changes deserve more than a reply that says, “Sure thing!”

If Microsoft 365 goes down, you may lose Outlook and Teams at the same time. And if an account is compromised, using those same tools to discuss the response is a little like planning the escape route while the burglar is still in the room.

That is why your backup communication channel should use a completely different service.

For a small business, that might be a managed SMS service or a private messaging group. Just make sure it does not rely on Microsoft 365 for login, or your “backup” may disappear right along with everything else.

A few things to set up:
▶️ Keep a staff contact list somewhere outside your main work account
▶️ Include your IT provider and cyber insurer
▶️ Decide who is allowed to send emergency alerts
▶️ Give employees a way to verify that the message is genuine
▶️ Test the channel before you actually need it

Because an emergency communication plan should not begin with, “Wait… how do we contact everyone?”

Need help setting one up? Send us a message and we will work through it with you.

A calendar invite can be a phishing email wearing business casual.

That unexpected meeting request may hide a fake video link, invoice, shared document, or login page—and it may use the name of a company or person you recognize.

Before clicking anything:
▶️ Check the organizer’s full email address
▶️ Confirm unexpected meetings using contact details you already trust
▶️ Review whether your calendar auto-adds invites from unknown senders
▶️ Report suspicious invitations through your email or calendar service

Because “it was on my calendar” does not automatically mean “it was legit.”

Keeping an older computer can save money… until your employee spends half the day waiting for it to catch up.

If it is supported, reliable, and still fast enough, keep it. If it is constantly slowing work down or calling IT for help, the “savings” may already be gone.
