Halloween at CMA did not disappoint! 🎃

Our team showed up in full costume this year, and a few of our crew went all in as the emotions from Inside Out 2. (Shoutout to Embarrassment for really committing to the role. 😂)

Which emotion are you running on today? Let us know in the comments!

Happy Halloween from all of us at CMA Technology Solutions! 👻

Another great CMA Family Day at Topgolf!

We loved spending the day with our team and their families. Thanks to everyone who came out and made it such a fun day!

🚨Security Alert: Critical PHP Vulnerabilities ("PHP2Shell")

Two critical PHP vulnerabilities could let attackers take control of unpatched web servers, and attacks are already being reported.

If your organization uses PHP-based websites or applications, including WordPress or Drupal, now is the time to check your systems and apply the latest security updates.

Not sure if you're affected? Our team can help.

Behind every reliable IT environment is a team working to keep it that way.

A look inside CMA’s Network Operations Center (NOC), where our team works behind the scenes to monitor systems, identify potential issues, and help keep businesses connected, secure, and running smoothly.

Because great technology is only as strong as the people behind it.

Would your employees recognize a phishing email before clicking?

Cybercriminals don’t always need sophisticated tools to get into a business. Sometimes, all it takes is one convincing email.

Here are 3 warning signs your team shouldn’t ignore:

🚩 Unexpected requests: An email asking you to reset a password, share sensitive information, or approve a payment you weren’t expecting.

🚩 A sense of urgency: Messages pressuring you to act immediately before you have time to verify the request.

🚩 Suspicious links or senders: Email addresses and links that look legitimate at first glance but don’t match the organization they claim to represent.

This Cybersecurity Awareness Month, take a moment to ask: Would everyone on your team know what to do?

When in doubt, verify requests through a trusted channel before clicking or sharing information, and report anything suspicious to your IT team.

Ask most IT leaders what their disaster recovery costs, and they’ll name two things: the Co-Lo invoice and the hardware they remember buying.

The real number is usually 30–50% higher, and often 2–3x what shows up in the IT budget. The rest hides in staff time, licensing, refresh cycles, and costs most budgets never track.

The kicker? None of that spend is tied to a performance guarantee. You can pay for all of it and still have a DR plan that’s never been tested.

Managed DRaaS changes the equation with predictable monthly costs, defined SLAs, and testing built in.

A great evening in Lafayette with CMA and NetApp!

Last night, we brought together local business leaders at POUR Restaurant & Bar for great food, meaningful conversations, and insights into smarter data solutions.

Thank you to everyone who joined us! We look forward to continuing the conversations and helping businesses keep their data not just stylish, but secure.

2:47 a.m. Your servers go down.

Your team opens the DR plan... and finds it hasn't been tested in 18 months.

Every minute from here costs you thousands.

Having a DR plan and having a recoverable one are two very different things. Which one do you have?
