For months, businesses have been making strategic budget cuts to try to stay afloat. Cybersecurity has been the ultimate growth industry over the past several years, but in the face of the pandemic, the market for these products and services is seeing substantial retraction. In fact, Gartner estimates that in 2020, the cybersecurity industry will shrink by almost $7 billion. Today, we’ll take a look at the cybersecurity market and why it is important not to slow your cybersecurity spending if you can help it.

Things are going to be different moving forward, and you may need to adjust your network in order to handle it.

The last time I had checked, ticket prices were over $600 on the low-end, and that was to reserve them 9 months early. With the pandemic, well, it’s just best to stay home. Fortunately, on July 3rd, Disney released the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical on Disney+. You no longer have to *Wait for It*. What if you want to watch Hamilton with your friends while still practicing social distancing? *We Know*, and we’re about to show you. Best of all, your friends won’t need to be *In the Room Where it Happens*. We’re probably not going to stop with the Hamilton song title puns either.

Your data is vital for your organization’s continuity. Your data consists of everything from your company documents, accounting records, client contact information, prospects and leads, procedures, and everything else needed for you to keep operations running smoothly. That’s why all businesses need a solid backup solution that is monitored and tested regularly.

On a national scope, mobile banking alone has seen an increase of 50 percent over just the last few months. In what certainly is no coincidence, the Federal Bureau of Investigation recently put out a warning that identified banking apps as likely targets for hackers.
