Hi *|FNAME|*,

Welcome to November.

Another month and news of another company (or two) hit the news for the wrong reasons (ie a cyber attack). October was cyber security month so have you recently completed a security audit? If not why not as, it is better to take precautions now before it is too late.

At the end of October Bevin and I attended the 2022 SMBiT National Conference on the Gold Coast. For those that don't know SMBiT is the leading industry association for IT businesses and professionals servicing SMBs in Australia. I'm currently the South Australian Chapter President and also serve on the national board. The conference was a great learning experience for us both and it was great to catch up with other IT providers from across Australia and New Zealand.

We are starting to see a companies upgrade their local network speeds from 1G to 2.5G (or 10G) to speed up local access and also cope with Internet speeds above 1G. Contact me to discuss what options available to your business.

If you would like to catch up to discuss your IT needs or just for a chat, please let me know via phone (0412 973 503) or email (david@dpcomputing.com.au).

Cheers,
David Perkovic

Out and About

Last month we have been busy right across Adelaide and Sydney. Some of the work we have been doing includes:

  • Bevin was out in the Adelaide Hills.
  • Zee was busy installing giant iTabs at the Adelaide Convention Centre.
  • Scott has been busy in and around Sydney as Neil has been on holidays.
  • David and Bevin were up on the "not so sunny" Gold Coast for the 2022 SMBiT National Conference.
  • Paul and Ben are getting ready to upgrade a wireless network for a client down in McLaren Vale.

Bevin was out working in Gumeracha and took this great shot of the Big Rocking Horse.
