As the global trade continues to shift, the tech industry is feeling immense pressure. With the latest round of tariffs targeting Chinese-made technology and electronics, we’re beginning to see a ripple effect across the tech world. With hardware prices climbing and inventory backlogs growing, things are not looking the best for small to midsize businesses. Unfortunately, as businesses are doing their best to stay secure, they are facing an even harder time to stay secure.
What’s Happening? 🤔 ❓ 🤷♂️
Due to the increased tariffs, major tech components such as routers, firewalls, servers, workstations, and other security devices are facing significant price hikes (yikes). Some are already rising as much as 10–20%! For cybersecurity providers like us at Century Solutions Group, this doesn’t just impact what we pay as a company, but it affects how quickly we can deploy solutions to protect your network (double yikes).
It is not just pricing that we’re seeing that is being impacted. We’re also seeing backorders on essential IT and security equipment, which results in delays in implementation plus longer wait times for upgrades or replacements. Unfortunately, this has all the same feelings of the Covid–era supply chain issues we all want to forget.
Why Does This Matters for Your Business? 💲 💼 📊
Cyber threats don’t wait as phishing scam attempts, ransomware, and even IT support scams are on the rise, and running your business on obsolete or vulnerable systems most certainly puts you at a serious risk. Due to the current tariffs inflating costs coupled with the slowing down product availability, delaying your security investment could leave you:
- Vulnerable to highly sophisticated cyberattacks via phishing scams and much more.
- Inability to replace failing hardware in time which allows opportunity for fake antivirus alerts, helpdesk phishing and even CEO fraud.
- Paying more for the same solutions months later from now when you could protect against ransomware warning pop-up and more.
