Tech is essential for all small businesses, but many entrepreneurs overlook critical IT security measures until it's too late. Tina Watson, IT consultant with 25 years of experience, shares how proper technology planning can protect your business from devastating data loss and security breaches.

• Small businesses are prime targets for hackers precisely because they often lack proper security measures
• Security basics include strong passwords, multi-factor authentication, and regular software updates
• "Cloud" services aren't actually ethereal—they're physical servers that can be compromised without proper backups
• Managed IT services provide predictable monthly costs while ensuring proper security protocols and support
• Even low-tech industries now rely heavily on technology, creating new vulnerabilities that must be addressed
• Professional IT support helps prevent catastrophic data loss that can force businesses to close permanently
• Simple physical issues like overheating servers or damaged cables can cause significant tech problems
• Screen protectors can prevent sensitive information from being viewed from the side in public settings
