Dell Server Updates & 2FA/MFA Notice

Dell Server Updates & 2FA/MFA Notice 1000 667 GladiusIT

Let the holiday season begin!

We have two important updates as we look to close out 2024:

  1. Dell has released critical updates for 14th Generation PowerEdge servers, specifically targeting BIOS and iDRAC9 firmware. We’ll be implementing these crucial security patches during our scheduled server maintenance over the next two weekends. No action needed on your part – we’ll handle everything during off-hours to ensure minimal disruption to your operations.
  2. Anyone in this business knows it’s a war out there, and 2025’s battlefield is already taking shape. Like checking your sightlines before the sun comes up, we’re surveying the digital landscape and fortifying your defenses. Over the coming months, we’ll be rolling out enhanced Multi-Factor Authentication (2FA/MFA) across your systems and eliminating shared passwords wherever possible. (DoD Compliance customers already know the drill.) Of course, we’ll maintain exceptions where business needs require them. This strategic approach helps us anticipate threats and eliminate likely attack vectors before they can be exploited.

Here’s to a secure and prosperous end of year!
