  • Summary

  • Many freelancers cut corners by using versions of software designed for the “home” user market, rather than versions for small businesses. This can be a problem when the software doesn’t have the functionality they require, especially security functionality. What can be worse is when freelancers double-down on this budget approach and load freeware onto their devices, then expect modest home anti-virus programs to fully support their cybersecurity needs. We all know I am all about being thrifty, but there is a tipping point when your thriftiness threatens your security and your ability to do business. Today I discuss a couple of areas in which you do not want to cut corners. [You can find the transcript for today’s episode here.] If you enjoyed this episode, we hope you will leave a comment.
