This means resourcing for in-house IT teams continues to be a key concern across every industry, in both the public and private sectors, with many teams increasingly stretched just attempting to operate as normal. Such fraught conditions of overwork and under-staffing means that cyber-incidents are not only more likely to occur, but will also pose greater challenges to recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" wp-block-paragraph\">Previously, the natural way of dealing with skill and personnel gaps has been to enlist the help of a mass-market support service which can jump in at the first sign of an issue. Unfortunately, in today\u2019s connected world, such reactive support is no longer sufficient. When the difference between suffering and averting a data breach can be a matter of minutes, a support service that can only engage after an issue has been flagged is simply unable to react in time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" wp-block-paragraph\">Building a modern, secure IT estate requires a modern support partner \u2013 one that can provide continuous intelligent monitoring, as well as proactive measures to defuse and solve issues before they ever become a reality. What\u2019s more, not every engagement with such a partner should need to be about something going wrong. A truly proactive approach should include taking advantage of the expert experience available within a support team, helping organisations to manage and optimise their digital infrastructure to improve their day-to-day workings, and ensuring that in-house IT teams can function at optimal capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" wp-block-paragraph\">In the past, mass-market support services were frequently designed as one-size-fits-all offerings, because of the more uniform nature of the technology being supported. However, as the needs of organisations have changed, and more specialised equipment has been developed, a generic support service risks failing to meet their specific needs. To avoid these pitfalls, it\u2019s crucial for organisations to be supported by flexible teams aligned to the organisation\u2019s goals, that constantly learn and adapt in order to comprehensively understand both the underlying technologies behind an organisation\u2019s systems, and the needs being served by the systems themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" wp-block-paragraph\">For this to be a possibility, the basics of support need to be reconsidered. Effective, modern support is not a mass-market service \u2013 it\u2019s a relationship with a support partner that not only understands the technology, but also the organisation itself, its priorities and its needs. Expertise should not be jealously guarded, but openly shared through unfettered access to an expert team\u2019s skills and knowledge on a continuing basis \u2013 before, during and after any issues arise. As the technology used by organisations continues to evolve, so too should the support services on which they rely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" wp-block-paragraph\">By the same token, traditional support boundaries also need to be redrawn. Narrow definitions of what constitutes a \u201csupport\u201d issue inevitably leave gaps in an organisation\u2019s defences, meaning organisations can find themselves abandoned by support services \u2013 potentially just when their need for help is the most urgent. As the IT landscape constantly evolves, so too should the coverage provided by a support service. It\u2019s vital to have a support team that can respond to situations as they exist within reality, not just as laid out within a restrictive contract. Even if an issue wanders outside the scope of \u201csupport\u201d, they should still be willing to do what they can to help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" wp-block-paragraph\">Modern support services should be viewed less as an external resource to the organisation, and more as a fully integrated part of the team, with the reliance and expectations that come along with that. Just as they would hire for an in-house IT position, organisations should look for an ongoing relationship that integrates support services into the business, rather than simply an external on-call crisis team. Such expectations are hardly excessive, given that even a relatively minor technical issue can quickly become hugely damaging to an organisation\u2019s reputation once it begins affecting users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" wp-block-paragraph\">At ITGL, our Integral Services goes far beyond traditional support.
