Welcome to our September newsletter.

For the next few month Jai will be working full time for one of our larger clients in the city so you won't be seeing him around as much.

As part of the SA Technology Collective we will be exhibiting at the upcoming Southern Business Connections Business Expo. It will be held at the Tonsley TAFE Campus on October 25th between 2PM and 7PM. Entry is free (along with free drinks and a free sausage sizzle!) and you will be able to connect with quite a number of southern based businesses and also hear from guest speaker Wayne Phillips (ex Australian Cricketer).

If you use Office365 I suggest you check out how secure your account is by going to the following website and logging in: https://securescore.office.com/ You will probably be suprised at the results and if you need help to strengthen your security please contact us on 08 8326 4364 or support@dpcomputing.com.au.

If you have any suggestions or feedback regarding the newsletters please let me know as it is much appreciated.

Regards
