Rules are great, but tools make them stick. 🛡️

Ever told your team "no gambling sites on work computers" only to worry if someone is clicking the wrong link anyway?

At Dornbusch Computing, we believe IT should be Simple, Secure, and Reliable. That means moving beyond just "rules" and putting "tools" in place that work for you.

Our latest blog post explains the difference between Administrative and Technical controls. We show you how a business-class antivirus can automatically block high-risk websites, so you can stop worrying about what’s happening on your network and get back to running your business.

Check out the post to see how we build a digital "battle plan" for your team!

When Big Tech Goes Down, Your Business Shouldn’t
This morning, a major Cloudflare outage disrupted thousands of websites and apps worldwide.

For small businesses, these events are a reminder: don’t put all your eggs in one basket when it comes to technology.

Here are 5 steps to reduce risk and stay resilient:

✅ Diversify critical services
Use multiple providers for DNS, hosting, and email so one outage doesn’t take you offline.

✅ Implement local backups
Cloud services are great—but keep offline or on-prem backups for essential data.

✅ Monitor uptime proactively
Use tools that alert you when services fail, so you can act fast.

✅ Have a failover plan
Set up backup internet connections or secondary systems for key operations.

✅ Communicate with customers
Prepare a quick-response plan for social media and email updates during outages.

Resilience isn’t just for big companies—small businesses can do this too.
