What’s missing from this photo?
Are you prepared to have your Mac and backup drive vanish overnight? How could you get right back to work? What about your data? Your client’s data? If you don’t have a plan for off-site backup, then you need to make one! This is an actual photo of our customer’s desk in Baltimore City. You can see that there used to be an iMac sitting there. It was stolen!
The thieves got a few Macs from this office and also a Time Capsule with backups on it. Thankfully, the bad guys missed a Mac mini server (that has ALL of their corporate and client data) that was sitting right next to the Time Capsule that got taken!
MacMedics to the rescue! First of all we had detailed notes and sales/service records of all of the stolen items (Purchased in 2015). Our customer needed that info for the police report and their insurance claim. We also had a new router in stock that we used to replace the Apple Time Capsule since they are no longer made. So, within a few hours, we had their network back up and running again.

You never think this will happen to you, but crazy once-in-a-lifetime things like this happen all the time!
In this theft case, our customer lost his keys outside of the office. A bad actor found the keys, figured they were for someplace nearby, and then crept in at night to steal stuff. They also tried to steal his car, but the Mac thief and would-be car thief did not know how to drive a stick shift. LOL!
