Safely Embrace WFH

Working from home is the new normal, but your old cybersecurity practices aren’t enough to stay safe. Engage employees in the solution: a time-efficient, plain language solution that gives IT professionals the reporting and engagement they require.

Address Threats Like a Pro

The new threat landscape is too urgent to wait for a fully staffed internal cybersecurity function. Don’t try to craft and implement remote cybersecurity policies on your own — we’ll be your ally in guarding your growing cyber perimeter.

Create a Security Advantage

You’ve got obligations to your employees, customers, and financial stakeholders. By implementing a modern cybersecurity program, you rise above the rest and shield yourself from threats — while others struggle to keep up with each security crisis as it arises.

IT is not the sexiest industry, which might explain why it essentially saw no innovation for three decades, but Electric is changing that. CEO and founder, Ryan Denehy, and his executive team actively work against operating at the traditional breakneck pace of a tech startup, putting the emphasis on employee wellness and creating real change (and by that I do not mean free beer and a canned quote on Instagram).

Ryan Denehy, CEO and founder of Electric

NYC tech startup MSP acquisition/growth story

Throughout the pandemic, Electric sought out to be the antithesis of all things “Silicon Valley bro culture”. The company has seen demand skyrocket during the pandemic and actually reopened its Series B round in March and April for added funds from Dick Costolo and Adam Bain at 01 Ventures.

Some of the initiatives they’ve implemented this year:

  • Part of NYTechCares, an initiative that crowd-sources funds, resources, and donations to help low-income students in NYC access e-learning opportunities.
  • Partners with The Last Mile, a non-profit organization that provides coding and technology training to the incarcerated population across the U.S., training Last Mile students on coding, general interviews, engineering interviews, and more.
  • Mandatory company-wide PTO the first Friday of every month, “No Meetings Thursdays”, and revamped employee review processes emphasizing empathy

Main Topic:

The days of relying on expensive and difficult-to-manage in-house infrastructure are quickly going by the wayside as businesses now demand more accessible, easy-to-use, and secure technology. That is why the Brightworks Group doesn’t approach IT like your ordinary IT services provider.

Brightworks utilizes cloud-based IT solutions to help our customers create a complete technology ecosystem: hardware, data storage, remote access, and data security. We work with our customers to understand and identify the unique demands they face and create packaged IT services that help deliver the exact solution they need, without the extra services and expenses they don’t.

Switching to cloud-based IT services can also help eliminate many burdensome technology-related expenses such as maintaining on-site infrastructure and servers and supporting internal IT staffing.

Brightworks partners with industry leaders in reliable, powerful, cloud-delivered, and completely managed solutions like Avatara, SKOUT, Datto, Mimecast, and others in order to provide our customers with the very best IT services for their business that maximize work efficiency and data security while minimizing your IT-related costs.

whatsmyip.org

WhatsMyIP.org started in April of 2001 when I bought this domain name on a whim. This site was originally hosted on an Apple Mac Quadra 700, connected to a residential internet connection, and the IP Addresses were retrieved via AppleScript. We've come a very long way. If you want to see how long, check us out on Archive.org!

** Port Scanners, WhoIs & DNS, Website Rankings, Password Generator, MAC Address Lookup, etc., etc., etc.

VOIP Tips (rant)

If you are going to be a VOIP provider you ARE going to be a network engineer.

  • If your vendor cannot provide you recommendations on the following - FIND A NEW VENDOR.
  • Your vendor vetting is EXTREMELY important. Your vendor will easily be 70% of a successful installation. 95% of VOIP sales vendors will ask nothing about the current infrastructure or supply necessary requirements. Understand that your customers really have no idea what VOIP is, they simply want phone service.
  • There is nothing VOIP cannot do versus an on-site PBX with the correct vendor and configuration.
  • You need to have commercial grade equipment for a successful installation that supports the settings requirements of VOIP (RTP and SIP traffic (QoS) and firewalls that are SIP/VoIP friendly).
  • Know and understand UDP. You will need to configure or accommodate this for BLF (Busy Lamp Field).
  • Know and understand QOS (quality of service) so you can prioritize traffic.
  • Large VOIP installations are going to most likely need a separate VLAN for voice.
  • Correctly configure your firewall to bypass trusted VOIP traffic without inspection.
  • You will need both LAN and WAN bandwidth. Example: Take the amount of phone connections times 100kpbs (check with your VOIP vendor) for a good approximation of just your voice needs.
  • Do not forget about VOIP security. Make sure your vendor considers compliance and feature needs (spam calls, HIPAA, training, etc.). Make sure you 911 is correctly configured.
