Roswell, GA February 19, 2010 -- DynaSis, an IT services company serving small and midsized businesses in Atlanta, is warning its clients of an increase in the use of fake anti-virus software as a form of malware attack. In response to this growing trend, DynaSis today released a list of prevention tips and methods of spotting a rogue antivirus program.

Use of fake anti-virus, anti-spyware software is a fast-growing scam, especially as more people become aware of the dangers of spyware, adware and malware. Fake antivirus programs, or scareware, are very common and provide a way for scammers to make easy money. The scammers prey on the fears of Web surfers who are misled into believing their systems are infected and then pay, typically, $50 for a program that not only doesn't protect their computers, but often turns out to be malicious. By following the tips DynaSis provides, however, users will be better protected from becoming the victim of scammers, identity thieves and hackers.

Brad Bromelow, Vice President of Operations for DynaSis said, “We need to tell users how to avoid being socially engineered into installing malware. This type of attack is very prevalent, as we’ve seen more attacks than ever over the past 3-6 months. Educating our client base is the best defense. These prevention tips will help alleviate the headaches associated with fake-antivirus attacks.”

Some of the major antivirus companies have even seen their websites spoofed over the last couple of months. In many respects, this is as much an attack on the security community as it is on end users.

Some general security practices to avoid malware attacks include not opening attachments from unknown senders, changing passwords regularly, and using additional measures such as firewalls or anti-spam software. The complete list of prevention tips for fake antivirus attacks along with a common list of fake software can be found online by visiting https://dynasis.com/managed-it-services/managed-security/

Atlanta, GA  January 15, 2010 -- Today, DynaSis, a managed IT solutions provider announced they are working with Citrix Systems, Inc. to offer a lunch and learn seminar entitled “Citrix XenDesktop 4: The Clear Choice for Desktop Virtualization”. The series on desktop virtualization will be offered to IT managers and C-level IT professionals managing 50-500 desktops and will explore how virtualization can dramatically save on IT costs.

Unlike first-generation solutions that were applicable only to a narrow set of users, the latest version of Citrix®XenDesktop™ with its new FlexCast™ delivery technology is the first product in the industry to support every major desktop virtualization model in a single, integrated solution – a breakthrough that enables improved ROI, simplified management and extends the benefits of virtualization to every employee in the enterprise. Virtualization dramatically reduces the time IT managers spend on administering PC updates and patches, and by delivering desktops on-demand to any device employees are no longer restricted to an “office computer”—increasing end-user productivity.

In addition to educating IT managers on the benefits of virtualization, the seminar will also dispel myths about desktop and application virtualization. DynaSis President David Moorman commented, “Many IT managers don’t yet know how to maximize the potential of virtualization within their organization. The seminar will educate IT personnel on how they can drastically cut maintenance and hardware costs using technology from a company on the cutting edge of virtualization. During a time of economic uncertainty, IT managers have the power to drive cost savings.”

DynaSis will present “Citrix XenDesktop 4: The Clear Choice for Desktop Virtualization” on February 3, 2009 at the Citrix offices in Alpharetta, Georgia. There is no cost to attend; attendees may register online at www.regonline.com/xendesktopseminar.

December 28, 2009, Atlanta, GA—DynaSis today announced the release of their “Technology Toolkit”, a set of informational documents for businesses to assess their current IT versus their existing infrastructure. The toolkit will help small to medium sized businesses make a solid decision when considering an IT purchase.

The Technology Toolkit contains a technology self-assessment that allows businesses to score their IT in relation to best practice standards as well as an IT checklist of services an IT provider should offer. A total cost of IT calculator is also included so businesses can calculate the overall expenditure of their IT network over a three year period when compared to managing IT in-house or outsourcing daily IT functions to a managed service provider. Lastly, the toolkit provides SMBs a whitepaper on software as a service (SaaS) technology which details how businesses can leverage SaaS to decrease technology costs.

DynaSis Vice President Chas Arnold commented, “The Technology Toolkit gives businesses a chance to read all the information for themselves and make an informed decision about their technology. Making an IT purchase is an involved process, and many business owners or professionals don’t know what to look for when searching for a new solution. The Technology Tool Kit will give them a good starting point to evaluate a solution that is right for them.”

The documents in the kit have been compiled after years of working with professionals in the Atlanta metro area and contains answers to commonly asked questions regarding IT providers and IT purchases.

DynaSis President David Moorman said, “After 18 years in the SMB IT market we are confident the Tool Kit will be a value add to any company struggling with questions like: Should we host our IT? What should my provider be doing for me? Will managing my IT in-house or outsourcing be more cost effective? DynaSis will continue to work with professionals in the decision process, but now businesses will have answers to the basics at their fingertips.”

The Technology Toolkit is free to small and medium sized businesses and can be found by visiting www.dynasis.com.

October 22, 2009 Atlanta, GA. DynaSis IT a managed IT provider for small and medium sized businesses has released a whitepaper on Software as a Service detailing the benefits of using SaaS to create a centralized IT solution which transforms IT into a utility. SaaS is a model of software deployment in which a provider licenses an application to customers for use as a service on demand. The whitepaper explains the growing trend towards using SaaS to centralize the management and delivery of IT and includes cost saving figures from leading researchers.

The whitepaper from DynaSis explains that traditional networks in which a small or medium sized business maintains their own equipment and data processes is not a cost effective practice. SaaS allows businesses to minimize their investment in technologies such as email, storage, application upgrades or security and shift dollars to advanced technologies like data warehousing, data mining, ERP and CRM solutions which could offer a head-start against competition.

The document also examines levels of “IT Maturity” explaining that a company’s IT infrastructure and systems can fall on a scale ranging from chaotic and reactive to a proactive or managed approach with IT as a utility being the highest level of maturity. Companies falling under proactive, managed, or utility are maximizing the value of their IT systems and saving the most over the long term. A managed services solution using SaaS can make that transition possible.

DynaSis President David Moorman, “This document was important for us to write because it helps businesses understand that the day-to-day care of IT isn’t a competitive advantage. A SaaS solution allows a business to focus on why they opened their doors in the first place. IT staff time is better spent exploring new ways for technology to improve efficiency rather than the mundane tasks associated with computer network maintenance.”

Chas Arnold Vice President of DynaSis adds, “SaaS is a big switch from traditional networking that some companies have a hard time grasping. The whitepaper explains in detail the argument for SaaS and points to why it is the next generation of computing.”
The DynaSis whitepaper Using Technology to Simplify and Save Money is available by visiting www.dynasis.com.

September 24, 2009 Atlanta, GA. After many businesses and schools were forced to shut down because of Monday’s Atlanta area floods, DynaSis IT is proud to announce none of its ITility by DynaSis service clients experienced downtime due to the downpours. ITility by DynaSis service from DynaSis is a software-as-a-service model in which data and applications are delivered over the Internet from a high availability central datacenter. The remote connectivity available through ITility by DynaSis allowed DynaSis clients to work as normal even if their office location was victim to flood damage.

Road closures and flood damage undoubtedly prevented many Atlanta small and midsize businesses from continuing work as normal on Monday and into the rest of the week. In addition to damages, local school closings forced Atlantans to stay home to care for young children in counties across the metro area resulting in lost employee productivity. Worse yet, others experienced damaged computer equipment leading to the loss of data.

While DynaSis clients experienced wet conditions, downtime and employee productivity were non-issues. ITility by DynaSis clients experienced 100% uptime after the floods and were able to work remotely if needed. ITility by DynaSis offers businesses access to their data from any location on any device using the Internet. In addition, equipment is safely stored offsite at a secured datacenter, while backups are performed routinely by expert engineers.
DynaSis President David Moorman commented, “Lost productivity accounts for a huge portion of business costs. ITility by DynaSis helps combat those losses with remote access capability so employees can work anywhere anytime. All data is stored and backed up at our datacenter and then replicated to an offsite location out-of-state for further protection in the case of a disaster like Monday’s floods.”

DynaSis will be offering a free month of ITility by DynaSis service for qualified Atlanta businesses until October 1, 2009. For more information contact DynaSis at 770.569.4600 or visit www.dynasis.com.

September 10, 2009 Atlanta, GA. DynaSis IT, a managed IT provider for small and medium sized businesses will be holding monthly “cloud tours” of the their world class Atlanta datacenter. Local Atlanta small and medium sized businesses are invited for a complimentary lunch and presentation of cloud services followed by a tour of the facility.

Cloud computing refers to dynamically scalable and often virtualized resources provided as a service over the Internet. The term cloud is a metaphor for the Internet based on how the Internet is depicted in computer networks.

Participants will learn about this technology as it applies to their business. Cloud technology or Software as a Service (SaaS), can help businesses minimize costs by reducing the time and resources required to manage IT networks. Other benefits include working from anywhere, the ability to access your data and applications from any device, plus the advantage of no longer purchasing server room equipment.
DynaSis President David Moorman commented, “The cloud is one of those IT buzzwords that has come to mean many different things, so we would like to show what it actually is and how SMBs can use it to significantly reduce their IT costs. In this scenario, IT is delivered as a utility, just like electricity or water. So instead of a capital expense on the balance sheet, IT can now be classified as an operating expense providing tax savings in addition to other benefits.”

The facility guarantees a secure and resilient place to house mission-critical equipment, with 24x7x365 server and environmental monitoring systems plus around the clock management personnel, digital video surveillance cameras, electronic access cards, and biometric retina and fingerprint authentication scanners. The data center is served by 6 high speed optical connections from backbone providers. With generator backup support as well as a high capacity UPS and automatic transfer switch, clients can rest assured that their data is protected from disastrous failures.

The next “cloud tour” is scheduled for Wednesday, September 23, 2009 in Atlanta, Georgia. To register or for more information visit www.dynasis.com and click on the cloud tour button.

July 28, 2009 Atlanta, GA--DynaSis, a technology managed service provider, is now offering business continuity plans to help small to medium sized businesses prepare for emergencies such as natural disaster, network crashes, or theft of business data. Unlike enterprises, many smaller companies cannot afford optimal in-house strategies and solutions. These companies are consequently at an elevated risk of being put out of business due to any major loss of data. A business continuity plan goes beyond offsite data backup and recovery and gives businesses a strategy detailing actions that will be taken after a crisis so the business can remain as functional as possible.

A key component of a business continuity plan is of course making sure critical documents and data are digitized or copied and stored off site, but the plan encompasses much more. Aspects businesses may not have considered include doing visual walkthroughs of facilities at least once a year to look for deficiencies, as well as making sure the business has sufficient business interruption insurance to cover the cost of operations for at least 60 days with no income. Other areas of concern consist of communications with employees in the event of phone system or Internet outages and creating a plan in case key employees can’t perform their duties or quit suddenly. Maintaining a list of emergency vendors as well as securing an alternative place to conduct business if the primary facility is unavailable are also details the plan would include.

DynaSis President David Moorman said, “Our goal is always to be a value added provider in the eyes of our clients. For this reason, we go beyond being just your IT repair guy. Protecting your data is half the battle, but when a crisis hits, you also have to think about what you are going to do to get back up to speed. What a business does in the first four hours after an emergency often determines how well they can bounce back.”

With 87% of companies that lose access to their corporate data for more than 7 days going out of business within a year and less than 5% of non-regulated businesses having a business continuity plan, and the need for business continuity planning services is real and the benefits to clients are immediate and long-term. Benefits realized after completing a business continuity/disaster recovery plan include competitive advantage, insurance savings, efficiency savings, improved processes, increased stockholder value and peace of mind.

June 23, 2009: Atlanta, Georgia. DynaSis, a managed IT provider in the Atlanta metro area has recently announced its new partnership with IP phone system provider Fonality to offer small to medium sized businesses access to affordable Atlanta VoIP solutions comparable to large business phone systems.

The barrier to entry for Voice over IP in Atlanta for most small to midsized businesses has long been the cost involved with installing and maintaining a full scale VoIP solution that can provide the sound quality and features enterprise solutions offer. Enterprise solutions are often costly to maintain because they require a skilled IT professional for minor issues such as simple additions or deletions of extensions, and most of the cost savings realized from long distance savings are eaten up by maintenance and initial installation costs.

Fonality from DynaSis creates affordable SMB Atlanta voice over IP solutions that are easy to use, easy to manage, scalable, feature-rich, and reliable. Through this partnership, DynaSis is now able to offer small to mid-sized businesses the ability to sound and operate like a large business.

DynaSis President David Moorman commented, “Our position is that every small to medium sized business needs an affordable communication system that provides a competitive edge. With Fonality, SMBs get an easy to use small business voice over IP solution complete with rich features, mobility, scalability and a low total cost of ownership.”

Fonality’s website states: ”We believe that businesses should not have to shell out fortunes for expensive traditional PBX systems or settle for the typical, feature-lean, key phone systems that have always made them look and sound small. We are committed to providing next-generation communication solutions that are simple to use and easy to manage. “

With Atlanta VoIP solutions from DynaSis advanced features help even the smallest businesses sound like multi-million dollar operations. Big business features such as auto-attendant, dial-by-name directory, call queues, call parking, drag-and-drop call transfer, CRM integration, and advanced reporting are finally available at affordable prices.
