Welcome to the November edition of the SWK Insider

Make a Difference!
Jeffrey RothBy Jeffrey D. Roth, CEO

With the approaching holiday season, it's a good time to stop whining about how awful 2009 was economically (for many of us) and focus on what we have to celebrate in our lives.

True, it's been tough for some, while others have found new ways to drive new revenue streams and create profits! At SWK, we constantly attempt to move forward. This may mean embracing a new mobile technology or discovering shortcuts for our clients that same time and money. We have found success this year by increasing our services revenue, even though new software license revenues were down.

Big Brother and the Case of the Unproductive Employee
By Matt Hahn

No one likes someone looking over their shoulder – but sometimes, in business, it can't be helped.

Do you know what your employees are doing when they are in their cubes or offices? What kinds of sites are they surfing, what software are they downloading to your server, are they sending and receiving unrelated, compromising e-mails, and are they spending their time on Facebook, Twitter or other social media sites?

Not only is behavior unproductive; it puts the company at a huge legal risk if sensitive information were to be sent, and worse, if servers were comprised through hackers or malevolent means! Learn more
