Key Points The 3-2-1-1-0 strategy secures data using immutability to ensure backups cannot be encrypted or deleted by attackers. Zero-error verification uses continuous checksum testing to guarantee that every byte of saved data is fully recoverable. Automating backup pipelines and restore drills replaces manual oversight with consistent, audit-ready security controls. Strategic tiering across disk, cloud, […]
Key points Pricing Model: SaaS backup pricing is mostly per user, with productivity suites billed by seat and other data-heavy platforms more likely to use storage-based pricing. Main Cost Drivers: Seat count, which SaaS apps are covered, retention length, backup frequency, and whether threat-detection add-ons are included. Hidden Costs: Retrieval or rehydration fees, ransomware-detection add-ons, […]

Data recovery comes in many facets. Things like how long data restoration takes may vary depending on the type of restoration you need to execute. While this information may seem trivial, it plays a vital role in setting clients’ expectations regarding data recovery. This distinction mentioned above, often framed as image backup vs file backup, is […]
Many Small and Medium-sized Businesses (SMBs) and public sector organizations still use open file share setups with broad access permissions. This setup creates risk. It exposes data, increases the chance of insider threats, and fails compliance checks. Migrating to secure group-based access addresses these issues and helps MSPs show governance maturity. This guide shows you […]
Key Points The Department of War suspended CMMC Phase II requirements, but organizations must still comply with NIST SP 800-171, DFARS, and other existing federal security obligations. The suspension pauses C3PAO certification requirements but does not eliminate self-assessments, SPRS score reporting, annual affirmations, or Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) protection requirements. MSPs should continue remediation efforts, […]

That’s why YCharts built Y, an AI agent that works directly inside the platform advisors already use. Y can analyze portfolios, compare investments, build proposals, and create client-ready materials. Upload a prospect’s brokerage statement and […]
Key Points Match File Transfer Method to the Use Case: Use RDP clipboard/drive mapping for small, non-sensitive fixes, RMM/SFTP for bulk, and sanctioned SMB or cloud for collaboration. Protect data with MFA, using encrypted channels (TLS 1.3 or VPN) and blocking legacy or admin shares; apply RBAC and require peer review for regulated transfers to […]
Key Points Device kiosk mode restricts computers, tablets, and phones to defined apps or workflows so devices stay focused on a specific task. Kiosk mode enforces restrictions at the device or user session level, limiting access to system settings, files, and unauthorized apps. Kiosk mode works across Windows, Android, iOS, ChromeOS, and web browsers, but […]
A small but practical JSON improvement When json_decode() fails, PHP has long told you that something went wrong — but not where in the input the problem occurred. With PHP 8.6, that changes: you can retrieve the error position for failed JSON decoding and pinpoint malformed payloads more quickly. This is especially helpful when you […]
