Hurricane season is here, and “we should probably look at our backups” is not a phrase anyone wants to say after a storm.

Our next Noon Nerd Herd is all about disaster preparedness, business continuity, and making sure your data is protected when the unexpected happens.

We’ll cover:
• What hurricane season means for your business risk
• Why backups matter and the mistakes we see most often
• Cloud backup options that help keep data accessible
• Simple steps you can take now to make recovery easier later

Preparation isn’t the most exciting item on the to-do list, but it can provide the biggest sigh of relief when a storm rolls through and your business keeps moving forward.

Our Cyber Tips for Employees guide is filled with practical advice, security reminders, and best practices designed to help employees become a stronger line of defense against cyber threats.

Keeping your device operating system and applications updated is one of the simplest ways to improve your cybersecurity.

Software updates often include fixes for known vulnerabilities that attackers actively look to exploit. Staying current helps protect your data, improve device performance, and reduce security risks.

A few minutes spent updating today can help prevent bigger problems tomorrow.

Earlier this month, Stephanie Farmer represented Trumbull Tech at a Tampa Business Club networking event hosted at Tico’s Bakery in Ybor.

It’s always great to get out into the community and connect with other local business owners. One thing we’ve learned over the years is that nobody understands the many hats small business owners wear quite like other small business owners.

From sharing ideas to exchanging experiences, these conversations help strengthen the local business community and remind us how fortunate we are to have so many great networking opportunities right here in our area.

Thanks to Tampa Business Club for bringing everyone together. Stephanie had a great time and enjoyed meeting so many passionate local professionals.

One of the most meaningful parts of our Wear & Share program has been seeing where the impact actually goes.

Recently, members of the Trumbull Tech team volunteered with SunRaising to assemble water filtration systems designed for communities without reliable access to clean drinking water. Spending time building the filters was rewarding on its own, but seeing photos and stories of those systems being used by real families put everything into perspective.

Each filter can provide up to 10 people with clean water for as long as 10 years. Something built by hand in a volunteer session can completely change daily life for a family, a classroom, or an entire small community.

That kind of impact stays with you.

Proceeds from our shirts help support initiatives like this alongside the local charities and organizations we work with throughout our community. SunRaising is also doing incredible work around sustainable communities and food insecurity, and their mission is worth learning more about:
