Winter storms can turn your office into an igloo—power outages, frozen hardware, and remote work woes hit hard when temperatures drop. With winter weather on the rise, 40% of businesses report IT disruptions from cold snaps, leading to lost productivity and data risks (source: Verizon Business Winter Preparedness Report 2026). At Vertechs, we help you weather the storm with our RMM, Cloud Services, and Data Integrity solutions. Here's how to keep your IT cozy and operational through the chill.

Winter IT Threats & Tips:

• Power Outages & Surge Protection: Storms knock out electricity—use UPS systems and surge protectors to avoid data corruption. Vertechs can monitor and address power events proactively.

• Hardware Freezing: Cold can cause hardware failures; keep servers in temperature-controlled environments and use remote monitoring to catch early warnings.

• Remote Work Spikes: Snow days mean more VPN access—bolster Cloud Services like Azure for secure, reliable connections from home.

• Data Backup Boost: Winter downtime amplifies data loss risks; automate offsite backups with our Data Integrity services to ensure quick recovery.
