New Year tech tune-up
Written by Tiffany Timmermans, Marketing Copywriter

New Year resolutions generally last as long as leftover Pavlova. But when it comes to your business, it’s best to stick to resolutions you can keep. To kick off the year, here are a few easily achievable tech habits that can make a real difference.
Lock down your logins
Start the year strong by securing your business. Level up to a password manager to generate and store secure, random passwords for every online account. While you’re there, switch on two-factor authentication. It’s one of the simplest ways to protect your business from cyber nasties.
Update and stay safe
Those software update notifications aren’t just there to annoy you. They include essential security patches that help protect your business from evolving threats. Set everything to auto-update and let the tech do the heavy lifting.
A backup plan
If your device was lost, damaged or suddenly called it quits tomorrow, would your files survive? Make sure all your key devices automatically back up to the cloud.
Upgrade to faster, more reliable internet
Leave patchy internet in the past and switch in 26’ to ultrafast and reliable business internet. A faster, more reliable connection means quicker file transfers, fewer dropouts, and no more spinning wheel of death. And while you're at it - setting up 4G backup on your plan will keep you online if something goes wrong with your main connection. It’s a small step that can save your business from a very big headache.
