When a critical vulnerability is announced, how quickly could you work out if your business is affected?

Alongside the immediate security risk, the latest PHP vulnerabilities are a reminder of just how important cyber preparedness is.

It’s not just about applying one particular patch. It’s about knowing what systems and software you have, who is responsible for them and having a clear process to respond when something goes wrong.

Because when a serious vulnerability becomes public, hours and days matter.

In our latest blog, we look at what businesses can learn from incidents like this, why asset visibility and supplier responsibility matter, and how Cyber Essentials can help build better security habits.

- Maintaining security and compliance.
- Managing Microsoft 365 environments.
- Protecting business data with reliable backups.
- Advising on future technology investments.
- Helping reduce risk and improve productivity.

The best MSP relationships aren’t just about fixing technology. They’re about helping businesses use technology more effectively, securely and strategically.

Are you using Microsoft Teams Live Chat on your website? There’s a deadline you need to know about...

Microsoft is retiring Teams Live Chat, with the service due to stop working completely on 5 October 2026.

For businesses currently using the feature, this means it’s time to start thinking about what comes next.

But replacing a chat widget isn’t necessarily as simple as moving to another Microsoft product. Depending on how your business uses live chat, there are a number of options worth considering – from straightforward third-party solutions to more advanced customer service platforms.

Our latest blog covers:

- What’s happening to Teams Live Chat.
- The key dates you need to know.
- What happens to existing customer information.
- The alternatives Microsoft recommends.
- What businesses should be doing now.

If you’re currently using Teams Live Chat, it’s worth taking a look before the October deadline. Head to our website to read the full article: https://vmhosts.co.uk/microsoft-is-retiring-teams-live-chat-what-businesses-need-to-know/
