The Golden Age Of IT:

As the demand for quality IT support grows, we are investing more resources and money into our respective departments. With this growth comes the need to understand what trends will shape the future of IT support.

Because the status quo of Information Technology (IT) is constantly changing, we must remain up-to-date on emerging trends to stay current in our field. Whether we are developing new technology or managing an existing network, staying informed about upcoming trends, will help us stay ahead of the competition and protect you. So what are we doing?

Shift Towards Proactive And Preventative Support: IT support is increasingly focussed on proactively identifying and resolving potential problems before they become major issues. This shift is driven by the need to reduce downtime, improve customer experience, and increase efficiency.

Increased Adoption Of Artificial Intelligence And Automation: AI-driven analytics and machine learning are becoming more widely used in IT.

The Increasing Significance of Cybersecurity and Data Protection: As the threat landscape keeps changing, MPR IT ‘MUST’ prepare our support team to assist clients in securing their systems and ensuring compliance with industry regulations.  This will involve monitoring for potential threats and implementing protective measures like two-factor authentication and encryption to protect information.

The Importance of Ongoing Training and Skill Development to Keep Pace with Emerging Technologies: As technology continues to evolve, it is crucial for MPR IT to remain informed about the latest trends and advancements. This necessitates continuous training and skill enhancement to maintain our competitiveness in the IT sector. As a company, we are investing more than ever in training and resources to ensure our team stays ahead, acquiring new skills like data analysis to remain relevant in today’s rapidly changing landscape. We continuously encounter new technologies and tools almost daily that can help us keep you ahead of the curve.

Security As Standard!

A huge leap forward in how MPR IT is working with clients, bringing in what has become not “nice to have” but “essential to have” security software toolsets. Our Machine Learning AI-driven security toolsets allow us and our clients, for the first time in years to get ahead of threat actors and bring enterprise-grade security suites to everyone!

Yes – these toolsets are deployed and managed to ALL our IT support clients, no matter which model of support you decide is best for your business IT support needs.

What Have We Added?

“EDR” (Endpoint Detection and Response)

MPR IT has chosen, to upgrade all our Anti-Virus software from a “real-time” scanner to the most advanced Anti-Virus, Ransomware and Malware Security Software EDR package.

Driven by artificial intelligence (AI), EDR can detect and stop unknown threats like ransomware by identifying untrusted applications and abnormal behaviours, even as new ransomware variants emerge.

Undetected threats may lie dormant in an IT infrastructure for months until the attackers decide to execute the ransomware. Therefore the threat-hunting capabilities of a modern EDR are vital to ensure a threat-free and clean environment.

Using data mining, our modern EDR platform enables security teams to automate threat hunting and search for key events on endpoints to understand processes and applications running at any moment. Our EDR platform allows our team to spot “early warning signs” of an attack by equipping teams with a search function and comprehensive parameters to identify potential risks.

Full Suite Software Auto Update

Up until now, it has only been feasible to patch Windows devices for Operating systems and Office software, unless individuals made large investments in tools for Stand-Alone Patch management software – The cost of which alone put them out of reach of the small business marketplace.  MPR IT has now invested in a toolset that allows us, as part of our core Reactive IT support service, to include the update of over 400 of the most commonly used software packages.

All businesses have more than one PC in operation, and more so now than ever it has become critical to ensure that all of them are updated. Even a slight delay in installing security updates is proving to put devices in a vulnerable position – Almost every other week there is a need to update Chrome, Adobe, Apple etc along with many other business-specific pieces of software.

MPR IT has made the decision that ALL our clients need and should have this new critical service and are making it an integral part of all our contract offerings.

Staying compliant has never been so easy.
