Almost 68% of businesses admit they’re less watchful during vacation season… and guess who’s been waiting for that moment? :technologist:

Cybercriminals thrive when IT teams are short-staffed or out on PTO. But don’t worry — staying secure this summer doesn’t require canceling your plans.

Here are 5 essential ways to keep your IT environment covered while your team’s away:

:one: Real-Time Monitoring from Anywhere

  • Enable real-time monitoring across all systems
  • Ensure critical devices are tracked whether they’re on-site or remote

:two: Enable Mobile Alerts

  • Set up instant push notifications for critical events so you can take action right from your phone — even if you’re away from your desk (or the country).

:three: Automate Software Patching

  • Automate patching for OS and third-party apps to make sure updates keep rolling out while your team’s out of office.

:four: Strengthen Your Security Stack

  • Use behavior-based ransomware detection to stop threats early
  • Combine antivirus and EDR for multi-layer protection
  • Schedule regular scans and updates — automated, of course

:five: Use Automation to Handle Routine Tasks

  • Create workflows to handle frequent IT chores: password resets, software installs, app cleanups, firewall checks.
  • Provide remote support—even without an agent installed

What’s your IT Strategy for the summer?
