Back Up Your Business's Data

Why is it important to back up your business’s data?

Disasters strike—hardware crashes, ransomware locks you out. Cheap backups fail when it counts. Invest in reliable, tested solutions (cloud + local), and you’re back in business fast—not broke.

• Cybersecurity: Without expert IT, you’re an easy target. Under-resourced small businesses are 43% of cyber victims (Small Business Trends)—lack of protection can kill you.
• Disaster Recovery: Downtime bleeds cash and credibility. Top IT support turns chaos into a quick fix, keeping your operations and customers safe.

We’ve met countless IT “veterans” with years of experience but little clue on practical steps to shield small businesses. That’s where NSG stands out. We bring real expertise to secure your cybersecurity and backups—because in 2025, solid IT isn’t optional; it’s survival.

Yes, Your Business Needs Cybersecurity

Why is cybersecurity so important for a small business?

In today’s world, small businesses can’t afford to cut corners on cybersecurity or backups. A good IT support company ensures you’re protected—here’s why:

Cyberattacks are surging—43% of small businesses face ransomware and phishing (Small Business Trends). Skimp here, and you’re hit with:

• Crippling Costs: Breaches average $200,000 (IBM), bankrupting 60% of small firms within six months.
• Lost Trust: One leak, and customers flee—think Equifax, which lost millions after a breach.
• Legal Trouble: Weak defenses can break laws like GDPR, piling on fines.

What if Your System Can't Upgrade?

Do you think your computer is too old to support Windows 11?

Not all older systems meet the compatibility requirements for Windows 11. If your current device is not eligible for an upgrade, you still have several options:

• Upgrade Your Hardware: Some older systems can be upgraded to meet the Windows 11 compatibility requirements. This may involve upgrading your processor, RAM, or storage.
• Purchase a New System: If your device is too outdated to upgrade, investing in a new system pre-installed with Windows 11 is a smart and future-roof decision.
• Extended Support for Windows 10: Microsoft offers extended support options for businesses that need more time to transition.
• Third-Party Security Support: NSG can assist you in purchasing a 0Patch subscription to extend the security life of your Windows 10 system beyond the official support date.

Don’t Wait Until the Last Minute!

With the deadline approaching, it's best to start planning your upgrade or system replacement now. As the end of support date draws near, demand for new systems and upgrade services will skyrocket, potentially causing delays and higher costs. By acting now, you can ensure a smooth transition without the last-minute scramble.

End of Windows 10 Support

Are you prepared for the end of Windows 10 support?

Microsoft has announced that it will officially end support for Windows 10 in October 2025. While that may seem like a long way off, it’s actually closer than you think! Now is the time to start planning your transition to ensure your systems remain secure and up to date.

Why Running an Unsupported Operating System is a Bad Idea

Once Microsoft ends support for Windows 10, the operating system will no longer receive security updates, bug fixes, or technical support. This leaves your system vulnerable to cyber threats, including malware, ransomware, and data breaches. Running an outdated OS is a significant security risk, especially for businesses and organizations that handle sensitive information.

Upgrading to Windows 11

The good news is that many newer systems are eligible for a free upgrade to Windows 11. If your PC meets the hardware requirements, upgrading is a simple process that ensures continued security and feature updates.

When you host your website with Network Services Group, you’ll never feel like just another ticket in a faceless system. You can reach us via phone, email, Zoom, or even meet with us in person.

As Autumn from NSG says, “One thing people need to realize is that when we host their sites, it represents the shortest possible path between the people who care about what’s happening with their site and the people who can really work the magic to make things happen, if there’s a problem or if they need something special. With canned hosting providers, there’s a very big gap there.”
