Practical writing on NIS2, CyFUN and cybersecurity for SMEs and non-profits. Drawn from what we run into every week, not marketing fluff.
Files with strange extensions, a ransom note on the screen and everything grinds to a halt. What you do in that first hour determines how much you lose. A no-nonsense plan: isolate, do not power off, who to call and what to leave alone.
Accounts that stay active for months, shared passwords that never change, data on private devices. A departure is a security risk when there is no list. This is that list: before, on and after the last day, plus what you set up in advance so it runs smoothly.
OneDrive, Google Drive and Dropbox synchronise, they do not back up. We explain the 3-2-1 rule in plain language, list what a 15-person SME needs to back up and give a small test plan to know whether your restore actually works.
Two-step verification is the measure that removes the most risk for the least effort. Which form to choose, in what order to roll it out, which mistakes to avoid and how much time it realistically takes for a team of fifteen.
At SMEs of around fifteen people, phishing is the most common way in. Seven signs that give a suspicious email away, a step-by-step plan for when someone has clicked anyway, and how to make reporting normal in your team.
Wi-Fi problems that keep coming back cost you time and patience every day. We walk through five reasons your Wi-Fi does not work as it should, each with a practical check you can run yourself.

NIS2 and CyFUN keep coming up, but what do they actually involve? A clear explanation of the law, who it applies to, and how CyFUN gives your IT security a practical shape.
A free cyber scan sounds like an obligation, but it is above all a clear starting point. We show how the scan works, how much time it takes and what you concretely get: a report, a risk analysis and recommendations to sharpen your IT security.
Most breaches go unnoticed for months. Which signals point to an old or ongoing hack, and which checks can you run yourself today to verify your it security?
Your team is already using AI tools like ChatGPT and Copilot, with or without agreements. A short AI workshop builds AI literacy: what data is allowed, how to spot mistakes, and which use cases actually save time.
Smaller SMEs and non-profits want IT support that actually picks up and an IT partner who knows their business. We explain why owners choose Secundra: wide availability, a fixed contact person, and IT and security in plain language.
