“Air-Gap” your backups of Windows 7 and Server 2008 Data before End Of Life

Providing and “Air-Gap” for your backup storage is a simple procedure. All you do is physically isolate the medium/device from your network and internet access. Unplugging your network cable, or removing the media from the device is a simple procedure that gives you incredible protection from ransomware and other exploits.

In the next 3 months, as you plan your upgrades from Windows 7 and Server 2008, take a little extra time to make and test backups of all your data and system images.
Testing is a key aspect many do not take the time to implement. Accessing your backed-up data and extracting test files does not take that much time. The assurance from this simple process will give you confidence in your storage and methods.

Remedium Systems can help your business with all of these tasks. We can help you plan and execute your backups. We can help you test and verify those backups. And we can help you diversify the media and locations you use to store your backups. (Surprisingly, tape still has a place in businesses and backups.)

Chances are your computer has already warned you, "After 10 years, support for Windows 7 is nearing the end."
And then, you checked the tiny little box, "Do not remind me again."

What does the end of support mean? It means that Microsoft will no longer provide security and software updates, leaving your operating system at an increasingly greater risk from malware after January 14, 2020. Even with your antivirus software being faithfully updated.
Bad-actors (those who use exploits to gain access to our computers) will begin to dip into their secret lists of exploits that have remained unpatched over the years.

Small Business Owners: What can you do to prepare?
Backup your documents, photos, and important files.
Honestly assess the age and condition of your computers.
Then decide if you are better off getting new computers with Windows 10 and a 3-year factory warranty rather than individual Windows 10 licenses for your aged computers.

Medium-sized Businesses: You likely have another option.
Businesses with 50-250 computers likely have volume licensing in place.
You will need to assess software requirements for all of your 3rd party applications.
If you don't have a Volume Licensing purchasing partner, Remedium Systems will be happy to work with you to find the best solutions for your new Volume Licensing needs.

Larger Companies: with their own dedicated I.T. staff
Remedium Systems often works in parternship with company staff to help find solutions quickly and effectively.
This lifts the burden from your staff and allows them to focus on the daily work necessary to keep all your employees productive.
