New £500K fine for firms that lose data

It's time to tighten up on your network security

Tough new penalties for data security breaches came into effect this month forcing owners of UK businesses to reconsider their network security.

Following several high profile cases, the government has now granted the Information Commissioner the power to fine companies up to £500,000 – that’s 100 times the previous maximum. Read more.

 

How long could you be without your network?

Affordable business continuity from Utilize

Companies that rely on traditional tape backup may be securing their data but the full process of restoring their systems can often run into days or even weeks.

Sage house-keeping
Boost your performance

We receive a high number of Sage calls from clients who would benefit greatly from better house-keeping.

We’re not nagging, but Sage products do run far quicker when you keep them tidy. The software is built around a central database, which like a giant Leylandii, will simply continue to grow until it begins to cause problems.

So it's prudent to carry out some regular maintenance or ‘house-keeping’ before that time comes. This month, read our 3 tips to help boost your Sage performance.
