A recent New York Times article, entitled “Keeping Your Rivals From Minding Your Business,” discussed ways in which small businesses can secure their company’s data. These ideas range from something as simple as just holding onto your laptop in the airport or a crowded restaurant to purchasing an encryption program and setting up a virtual private network. It also recommended that businesses of all sizes look to outsource their email to a hosting provider.
“OUTSOURCE E-MAIL Businesses no longer need to run their own e-mail networks, because many inexpensive alternatives will rent them as many mailboxes as needed. These providers will manage the entire e-mail process and offer a full collection of features, including the ability to screen and block messages that contain spam and viruses….Other services are more specialized, like 123Together.com, which offers to host a company’s e-mail on its Microsoft Exchange servers for $10 a mailbox a month.”
Our 123Together.com Exchange hosting service enables businesses, particularly small and mid-size businesses, that would not have the necessary financial or human resources to be able to take advantage of the world’s leading email solution. Hosted Exchange from 123Together.com not only provides users with anytime, anywhere access to all of their email folders, files, contacts, calendars and tasks via any internet-enabled computer or mobile devices like BlackBerry and the new Apple iPhone 3G but eliminates a great deal of security headaches that a company’s IT staff would face with in-house servers.
