Introduction to Me

Hello Everyone!😊

 

Welcome to my first ever Blog🎉

My name is Sinead and I am a 22 year old college student from the south east of Ireland. I attend the South East Technological University in Waterford (SETU) where I am studying the Bachelor of Business Studies with a specialism in Human Resource Management. I am currently in my fourth and final year of my studies and I hope to be able to graduate in 2025 all things going well.

 


I am a sporty person🏃.My hobbies mainly include sports. I love to play camogie and ladies gaelic football and some might even say that my life revolves around these two sports. When I’m not playing sport, I can be found in the gym, running around my local gaa pitch, training our under 18 camogie team or watching a GAA match. As you can probably tell I am GAA mad!😂 



I also have another hobby which is not quite as hectic as the GAA world. I play traditional Irish music🎶 and more specifically the tin whistle and fiddle 🎻.


Well that's enough about me, lets get down to the reason why i am writing this blog in the first place.

As part of my final year in college, I am doing a module called Digital Economy. This module requires me to write weekly blogs regarding areas in the digital economy. So, every week I will publish a blog based on a topic in this module. I have never written a blog before so I am excited to see how this will go and I hope you will stick with me for this journey where we can explore and learn more about the digital economy together.

 But for now, Thank you for reading and I hope you come back next week for more! 😁


Bye!👋

Cybersecurity for Small Businesses

Hello everyone!👋 Welcome back to my eight & final blog.😆   Today, we are going to explore the area of cybersecurity👮 for small businesses.   Cybersecurity is the process of reducing the risk of a cyber-attack. Its main function is to protect the devices, services and hard drives that organisations use from theft, damage or viruses. Keeping a small business protected from cyber-attacks is very important. A cyber security incident can have many negative impacts for a business. These include data breaches, loss of clients, lost productivity, brand reputation and many more. An interesting stat that I read the other day stated that 60% of small businesses that suffer from a cyberattack shut down within six months after the incident.😲💥 This highlights how important it is for a small business to focus on cybersecurity.
