It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas....🎄

Wishing our clients, partners and friends a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Here’s to good food, dodgy jumpers and no alarm clocks!

Well, it’s safe to say we’re all gutted that Mark was murdered on last night’s episode of The Traitors.

There was a collective ‘Noooooooo’ as Paudie and Nick brought his time in the castle to an end.

We’ve loved cheering him on every week and can confirm that off-screen, Mark is every bit as brilliant, funny, and genuine as he came across on the show.

Congrats on getting so far Mark, and here’s hoping the Traitors get what’s coming to them!

Death row drama in the castle… the tension’s real 😬

Mark’s fate hangs in the balance tonight! Will it be his last supper, or will he dodge the Traitors’ dagger once again?

We’ll be glued to our screens to see if our favourite Faithful makes it through.

Pass the popcorn… tonight’s episode is going to be a nail-biter. 🍿

🚨 The secret’s out! 🚨

Our very own Mark White has entered the castle as a contestant on The Traitors Ireland!📺

He’s been revealed as a Faithful, but with a target on his back, every night’s a battle for survival.🎯 Will he escape tonight’s murder and make it through another day?

We’ll be watching (nervously!) and cheering him on every step of the way. Best of luck Mark, and remember…. trust no one 😉

🎶 Because maybe… you’re gonna be the one that saves me… 🎶

….. and in the world of cyber security, that means Backups, MFA, and Endpoint Protection.

Without them, you could be looking back in anger at lost data, ransomware, or a costly breach.

Whether it’s wonderwall or a firewall, make sure your business has the right defences in place 😉

Huge congratulations to our very own Mark White on completing an incredible challenge, cycling 628km from Malin Head in Donegal to Mizen Head in Cork, all in just four days!

Mark organised the entire event and was joined by 12 fellow cyclists, all riding in support of the Mater Hospital Foundation. The team set out to raise awareness of heart conditions in young adults and to highlight the importance of early heart health checks, especially for those who may not realise they’re at risk.

Together, the team has already raised an incredible €18,000, smashing every fundraising target they’ve set🙌

The donation page is still open for a few more days, so if you’d like to help push that total even higher, any contribution, big or small, would make a real difference.
