🎣 The top search result for your bank might not be your bank.

A recent case out of Atlanta: federal prosecutors say a fraud ring paid for search ads that looked like real bank links, then used the logins people typed in to move money out of business accounts. The FBI has logged more than 5,100 of these complaints since January 2025, with over $262 million in reported losses.

Protect your business:
🔖 Log in to your bank from a saved bookmark, not a search result
👥 Require two people to approve wires
📞 Confirm any change in payment details by phone, using a number you already have
🛡️ Use web filtering on company computers

📋 Thinking about buying, selling, or borrowing to grow your business?

New SBA loan rules take effect TODAY, October 1, and for many deals that means more paperwork. Smaller acquisition loans now go through standard underwriting, and larger ones need a quality of earnings report.

More paperwork means more digging through your systems. Before a lender or buyer asks, make sure you can answer:
✅ Who owns our domain and Microsoft 365 account?
✅ Do we have a list of our software licenses and vendors?
✅ Are our backups working?

⏰ 13 days. Then Office 2021 stops getting security updates.

On October 13, Microsoft ends support for Office 2021 (the one-time-purchase version of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook). It won't stop working, and that's the problem: new security holes won't get fixed, and Office files are a favorite way for scammers to sneak malware into a business.

✅ On Microsoft 365? Your apps keep getting updates.
⚠️ Still on Office 2021? Time to make a plan.

🏢 Apartment, house, or your own building?

That's the easiest way to understand the different types of servers a business can use:

🏢 Shared virtual server = an apartment. Affordable and flexible, but you share the hardware.
🏠 Dedicated server = a house you lease. The whole machine is yours.
🔑 Bare metal cloud = a house on demand. Your own hardware, ready in minutes.
🏗️ On-premises server = a building you own. Full control, full responsibility.

With hardware prices climbing this year, more owners are asking whether to rent or buy. The right answer depends on what you run and how fast you're growing. Sometimes the answer is even "fewer servers than you think."

⚖️ Quick one for business owners: courts are still figuring out how to treat evidence created by AI and software, and federal rulemakers just hit pause to study it more.

What does that mean for a small business? Your emails, chat logs, and digital records can end up as the evidence in a dispute, and judges are asking tougher questions about where that data came from and whether it changed along the way.

Three questions to ask about your own IT setup:
✅ How long are we keeping our email and files?
✅ Is audit logging turned on, and has anyone checked?
✅ Could we actually restore from our backups?

Not sure? DG Cloud helps Metro Atlanta and North Georgia businesses tighten this up. Send a message or visit dgcloudconsulting.com

Quick heads up if your office still has Windows 10 computers: the clock is almost out.

Windows 10's last stretch of security updates ends October 13, 2026 — about three weeks from now. After that date, no more security patches. Ever. The computer will still turn on and look normal, but anything discovered wrong with it after that date never gets fixed.

One old, unprotected computer on your network can become the way in for a bigger problem — even if everything else is locked down tight.

If you're not sure which machines in your office are still on Windows 10, now's the time to check — not after October 13. We're happy to take a quick look and tell you exactly where you stand.

Quick question: do you know what kind of server your business website or software runs on?

Most people don't — and that's okay, it's not something you should need to think about day to day. But the difference matters more than you'd think:

🏢 Shared hosting = cheap, but you're sharing resources with tons of other sites
🏠 VPS = your own private slice of a server — good middle ground
🏡 Dedicated server = the whole machine is yours — best for high traffic or strict compliance needs
☁️ Cloud hosting = scales automatically as your needs change

The right choice depends on your traffic and how critical your uptime is — not on whatever sounds fanciest. If you've never had someone actually explain this to you in plain English, that's exactly the kind of thing we help with.

Did you know federal courts are now banning ChatGPT and other public AI tools from being used on legal discovery documents?

It's happening more than people realize. Courts have started issuing orders that block attorneys from running case files through consumer AI tools — and in some cases requiring firms to disclose exactly what AI they used.

Why does this matter for a law office? Because free AI tools can store and learn from what you type into them. If that's client data or discovery material, that's a real problem.

If your office uses AI in any capacity, it's worth a quick gut-check: do you know which tools are being used, and what's going into them? We help local firms set up AI the right way — private, controlled, and compliant — instead of guessing.

Cybersecurity Awareness Month starts in about three weeks. This year's national theme is "Securing the Next 250" — a nod to long-term resilience, not just a checklist for October.

Here's the honest version for a small business: you don't need a security budget line or an outside consultant to make real progress. You need one afternoon and someone willing to own four things — MFA turned on everywhere, no shared logins, admin rights narrowed to who actually needs them, and backups that have actually been tested (not just scheduled).

Start that list this month, and October becomes a victory lap instead of a scramble.

A recent campaign targeted 800 accounting firms with AI-generated emails that referenced each firm's actual state registration details. The click rate: 27%. That's roughly ten times what a generic phishing email pulls.

The old advice — watch for typos, bad grammar, weird formatting — doesn't help anymore. AI-written phishing is grammatically perfect and personalized with details scraped from your own website, LinkedIn, and public filings.

Professional services firms are a favorite target precisely because so much of your public information (bar numbers, licenses, client names) can be weaponized to make a fake email look legitimate. Email filtering that catches known spam won't catch this. It has to catch intent.
