Experiencing a data breach can have severe and long-lasting financial consequences. The costs associated with such incidents often go beyond immediate financial losses. Companies may face expenses related to investigation and remediation, legal actions and settlements, regulatory fines, and the implementation of enhanced security measures.

In November 2023, a ruthless cyberattack led to a 7-hour internet outage in public hospitals and polyclinics across Singapore. The disruption, categorised as a Distributed-Denial-of-Service attack, prevented legitimate users from accessing online services and crippled internal services such as emails and productivity tools. While the entire ordeal was contained without long-term consequences, a survey of local companies found that 86% of small-medium businesses were ill-equipped to defend themselves against a cyber attack. If you find yourself within that demographic, read on to find out how cybersecurity retainers offer round-the-clock protection for your business.

Unforeseen circumstances like natural disasters and cyberattacks can lead to network downtime, preventing business internet and data systems from running smoothly. When the network is down, employees face obstacles in accessing essential tools and data, resulting in lowered productivity. This ultimately brings about revenue loss. Fortunately, crafting a disaster recovery plan (DRP) can help businesses deal with unexpected challenges resiliently, particularly those dependent on commercial broadband, corporate internet, and other solutions. Join us to learn more about the key aspects of implementing a DRP.

In the modern era of digital technology, internet connectivity has evolved into a basic necessity for business operations. Whether it’s providing internet access for workstations in the office, cloud solutions for on-site technologies, or simply facilitating communication through VoIP calls, nearly every essential business function in the 21st century requires internet connectivity in some form.

Ask business owners operating in the Food and Beverage (F&B) or Retail industry and they’ll tell you how competitive and busy business can get. Increasing operational costs, tight profit margins and quicker demands have pushed businesses to rely heavily on technology and digital point-of-sale (POS) systems for their daily operations. As a result, having efficient and seamless connectivity to support these technologies and digital platforms has become a fundamental requirement for businesses functioning in these industries.

Given the myriad of service providers and different plans on the market, picking the best connectivity plan for your business can be a tough decision. The questions that probably come to mind immediately when debating between connectivity plans is "What is the difference between business and consumer plans? Does it matter for my business operations?” These are especially true questions amongst younger businesses that are still starting, and might not view business plans as necessary.

Digitalisation has increased the significance of information and introduced new cyber threats that constantly evolve. As such, businesses are now turning to Virtual Private Network (VPN) solutions to safeguard their online presence and sensitive data. This article highlights the role of VPNs in ensuring the confidentiality and integrity of digital communications for businesses.

The question of a cyberattack is not one of "If", but "When". Over a long enough timespan, most organisations will catch the attention of cybercriminals and become the target of a cybersecurity breach. The key is to recognise what to do when it does happen and have the necessary steps put into place to respond to the threat immediately. Don't have an Incident Response Plan (IRP) in place? Here are some simple measures to implement when you find your business face-to-face with a cyberattack.

A Content Delivery Network (CDN) infrastructure comprises strategically positioned servers distributed across various geographical locations to optimise the delivery of digital content. It improves the overall performance of content transmission by reducing latency and the load on single-origin servers. While this infrastructure is essential in supporting business operations, the deployment of ICT tools can help unlock its full potential. This article will delve into some of these tools.

Poorly managed phone service can cause businesses to fall victim to cyberattacks such as phishing and data breaches. Voice over Internet Protocol, or VoIP, allow businesses to prevent such attacks. VoIP is a technology that allows voice calls to be made over the Internet instead of traditional phone lines. VoIP converts your voice into digital signals and transmits them over the internet, enabling you to make calls from a computer, VoIP phone, or smartphone.

Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service facilitates voice communication and multimedia sessions over the internet by converting voice signals into digital data packets. It provides convenience to businesses by efficiently scaling their communication infrastructure without the need for extensive physical equipment. With a myriad of VoIP plans available, choosing the most suitable one can be challenging. In this guide, we will explore the factors to consider during the selection process, focusing on the innovative solutions offered by MyRepublic.
