Tabush Group’s Cloud and IT: A Year in Review and Look Ahead

As we bid farewell to 2023 and set our sights on the horizon of 2024, I find it essential to reflect on our journey and how we’ve developed our cloud and IT services. 2023 was marked by challenges, growth, and strategic adaptations. Let's delve into the highlights and glimpse at what lies ahead.

Do Law Firms Need IT Support?

To compete in today’s fast-paced world, every law firm needs a reliable, efficient, and secure IT system. However, most small and midsize law firms do not have the in-house resources needed to build, optimize, defend, maintain, support, and update such a system.

How Businesses Can Safely Store Data in the Cloud

Businesses are increasingly storing data in the cloud. Over the next decade, the global cloud computing market is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate of 16.8%, from $629.5 billion in 2023 to $2,974.6 billion in 2033, according to Market.us. By adopting cloud-based technologies, companies realize multiple advantages, including superior flexibility, ease of access, scalability, and, in many cases, enhanced security. Below are some considerations to ensure the safety of your data in the cloud.

AI's Impact on Small and Midsize Law Firms

Artificial intelligence (AI) promises to transform every industry, and law is no exception.

Currently, the hottest AI topic among law firms is generative AI, a type of AI tool – such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT – used to produce various types of content. According to a 2023 Wolters Kluwer survey, 73% of lawyers expect to integrate generative AI into their legal work in the next 12 months – up from 15% who use it now. Below are some meaningful ways that AI is impacting or will soon impact small and midsize firms.

The Most Overlooked Piece of Your Cybersecurity Plan: Your People

Cyberattacks are a top concern for companies of all sizes, prompting many organizations to further invest in their cybersecurity. Globally, spending on cybersecurity hardware, software, and services will top $219 billion this year, up 12% from 2022, and will soar to $300 billion by 2026, according to IDC Data & Analytics. However in safeguarding their systems and data, entities often underestimate the importance of cybersecurity education and training for their employees and other users.

Say Goodbye to Password Expiration

Password expiration notifications are typically met with groans from users.
