Beyond the Bottom Line: The Power of Giving Back
Nathan Phinney, one of the most successful MSPs and the author of Ctrl+Alt+Survive: The Secrets of My Small Business Success,” brought his dynamic message to the XChange and IT Conference in a spirited address on giving back and ensuring your business is about more than just the bottom line. His message set deep roots with the audience from his personal beginning of working with nonprofits to the valuable education about public relations and messaging.

Nathan Phinney, one of the most successful MSPs and the author of Ctrl+Alt+Survive: The Secrets of My Small Business Success,” brought his dynamic message to the XChange and IT Conference in a spirited address on giving back and ensuring your business is about more than just the bottom line. His message set deep roots with the audience from his personal beginning of working with nonprofits to the valuable education about public relations and messaging.

He learned through this that it really helps not only the community but also the business. Lessons from the 80s: Technology and Humanity One thing that really popped for me was Nathan’s opening, where he showed pictures of the popular 80s TV shows Knight Rider and Airwolf. He compared Knight Rider—a show about advanced technology, with AI way ahead of its time, and a man who took that technology and used it to help people—to what an MSP should do today. In other words, the point being raised here is that an MSP should put greater focus on helping others rather than just selling their services. The Power of Words: Eradicating “Just” Perhaps the most striking point during Nathan’s presentation was when he spoke to the use of the word “just.” He told a story working with a manufacturer producing nuts for NASA. In a discussion with an employee, she called their company a “just” nut manufacturer. Nathan thought it a...Read More

What Managed Services Should Include: A Practical Guide for IT Leaders
What is Managed IT Services? Managed IT services is an operating model in which an external provider takes ongoing responsibility for a defined set of a company’s technology support, monitoring, and maintenance needs. Unlike break-fix support, where a vendor only responds when something fails, managed services covers recurring work on a proactive schedule. The internal IT team keeps strategic control, while the provider takes on help desk volume, coverage needs, and monitoring gaps the team cannot reliably staff on its own.

The New Reality of Ransomware: What Organizations Need to Know
Ransomware remains one of the most disruptive cybersecurity threats facing organizations today. While ransomware once focused primarily on encrypting files, modern attacks often involve data theft, extortion, and the threat of publicly exposing sensitive information. The financial impact continues to grow. According to Sophos' State of Ransomware in the U.S. 2026 report, the average cost to recover from a ransomware attack reached $2.51 million, up from $1.91 million the previous year. That figure excludes any ransom payments and includes costs such as downtime, recovery efforts, lost product

No business is immune. Whether you're a small business, manufacturer, healthcare provider, nonprofit, or government contractor, understanding how ransomware works and how to reduce your risk is critical.
