Blast From The Past -Nortel

Remember this firm?  This little clock came from a Nortel dealer event in Tokyo, Japan.  It must have been one of those first radio wave clocks.

Nortel was a great company of the North, Canada. They used to keep us really busy.  We still have companies using their end of life systems and have fewer and fewer parts.  Nortel was bought out by their neighbor to the South, Avaya, who has recently declared bankruptcy.

Moral to the story, we must always be innovating to stay ahead in business.

Nortel RIP.

How Ransomware (Malware) Works

Big hit on a lot of networks world wide today.  Just because you get an email with a link to click or file attachment, doesn’t mean you should open it.

Please be careful about opening anything that comes into your email account.  Gmail has been rife with malware.  In today’s case it is windows users, but it could hit anyone.

We must be diligent to protect ourselves from cyber threats.
