Weekends are a great time to relax, recharge—and reflect on the small habits that could be having a big impact on your business. At Stamm Tech, we’ve seen it all: from teams unknowingly leaving digital doors wide open to surprisingly simple missteps that lead to major headaches.
Here are five tech habits that seem harmless—but could be putting your business at risk:
- Using the Same Password Everywhere - It’s easy. It’s convenient. And it’s exactly what hackers hope you're doing. One leaked login can unlock a whole network.
- Ignoring Software Updates - That “remind me later” button? It's a procrastinator’s trap. Updates often contain critical security patches that keep your systems protected.
- Using Public Wi-Fi Without Protection - Grabbing coffee and answering emails at your favorite café? Without a VPN, your sensitive data is up for grabs.
- Letting Old Accounts Linger - Former employees’ accounts still active? That’s a major vulnerability—especially if those accounts have elevated permissions.
- Clicking Before Thinking - Phishing emails are slicker than ever. All it takes is one click to invite malware into your systems.
Takeaway:
A few bad habits can quietly open your business up to big-time problems. The good news? They're easy to fix—and Stamm Tech is here to help.
