We recently teamed up with PBO Advisory Group and Franklin | Soto to present the top best cyber practices to help protect your organization’s valuable IT and financial assets. The 5 top IT security habits we shared in the webinar will help your business get started right away with a better IT security posture.
In our recent webinar with Veeam, we reviewed why you need a security plan for Microsoft 365. When Microsoft 365 was officially announced in 2017, it came as the next obvious evolution of the already powerful collection of Microsoft office tools. From a collaboration perspective, it provides an elegant solution to connect and empower remote team members. From an IT perspective, it streamlines IT management of users, devices, apps and services. And best yet, it uses integrated, intelligent security to safeguard company data, customer data, and intellectual property. If security is already baked into the software, why do you need a security plan for Microsoft 365?
We are excited to announce our new work-from-anywhere office! Last year, our team immediately transitioned to a full work-from-home model when the covid-19 shutdown occurred. We were already confident in the tech side of things, but we had not yet experienced the exclusively online interaction and KPI-driven success matrix that fully remote work requires. As it turned out, we loved it! Effective communication technology from Cisco and Microsoft kept us connected and productive, and cutting out the daily commute wasn’t all that bad, either! This year, we decided to make the shift to a permanent hybrid office and work-from-anywhere business model and move to a space that reflected our new and improved work structure.
We were excited to publish our first Forbes article earlier this year and then we thought to ourselves…what article should centrexIT CEO Dylan Natter work on next? After all, as a true renaissance man, Dylan can provide some pretty good insight into a wide variety of topics. It turns out Dylan Natter had plenty of Forbes article propositions to send over.

In this Smart Cities episode, Sean Ernst talks about the changed workplace environment from an IT and technology-use perspective, including work life during Covid-19, digital transformation and the digital workplace, the rise of the digital nomad, and the future of technology for human communication.
