What is the purpose of Business and being a Business Owner?
In a word- Expansion. Or in many words, it's your ability to do in the future what you can't do today, or to make possible what is now
impossible. This is how you are able to impact more people, more powerfully and more profitably every year.
Yet for far too many businesses, one year looks exactly like the next: the same people, the same impact, and the same profitability (which in many cases means little to no profitability).
But what if this time next year, you and your company expanded and became unrecognizable to you, your clients, and the people who depend on you?

Just Solutions Holds Webinar on Cybersecurity
Webinar by Just Solutions
Password Reuse: Your Employees Shortcut
and an Opening for the Bad Guys
Wednesday, August 15 at 12PM
Digital credentials such as usernames and passwords connect you and your employees to critical business applications, as well as online services. Unfortunately, criminals know this - and that's why digital credentials are among the most valuable assets found on the Dark Web.
As IT experts in the greater Rochester area for the last 20 years, we know there are always a few employees who leave the door wide open for cyber-criminals, hackers and thieves. Maybe they're sloppy with their passwords. Perhaps they use a personal email for work or reuse their passwords. Whatever mistakes they make, they put your entire company at great risk.
Join
Just Solutions & ID Agent on August 15th to learn more about the Dark Web and how to avoid a debilitating cyber-attack.
All attendees will receive a FREE Dark Web scan (normally $399)!
