Minuteman Press Printing Franchise in Beaver Falls, PA Wins Small Business of the Year

Minuteman Press International Inc

Karl and Nancy Chapple first bought their Minuteman Press franchise located at 920 7th Ave., Beaver Falls, PA in June 2007. Their full-service design, printing, and marketing center has remained open throughout the COVID-19 pandemic as an essential business. As a result of their continued hard work and dedication to the local business community over the years, Karl and Nancy have been awarded Small Business of the Year by the Beaver County Chamber of Commerce. “Winning small business of the year is a great honor,” says Karl Chapple. “It is a confirmation that we are fulfilling our promise to provide an Awesome Customer Experience.” According to the Beaver County Chamber of Commerce website, award winners such as Minuteman Press Beaver Falls are “being recognized for exceptional contributions as business people and community leaders” as well as working “well beyond their own self-interests, in collaboration with others in the community, to improve the quality of place and lives of all residents in our region.” Since the pandemic first took hold in March, Minuteman Press Beaver Falls has been there for their clients. Karl reflects, “In March and April, many of our customers were calling to ask if we were still open for business, and they were thrilled to hear that we were. While we offer COVID-19-related products to promote safety and social distancing, it was obvious that our ability to deliver the printed products that our customers depend on to keep their businesses going was a welcome relief, and that we were one constant during a time of turmoil and uncertainty.” As a local business leader with over 13 years of experience, many other small business owners have turned to Karl for advice in addition to his products. Karl explains, “My advice to small businesses at the start of the pandemic was to 1) conserve cash; and 2) continue to market. While those still apply as strongly as ever, it is time to look ahead. The pandemic will not last forever, but many businesses will see a lasting paradigm shift. It will be important to understand what things need to change and what things need to stay the same. Be careful to avoid ‘throwing the baby out with the bathwater’ as you chart your course forward.” Minuteman Press Beaver Falls is locally owned and operated by Karl and Nancy and yet they are part of the larger Minuteman Press International franchise network. Karl credits his franchisor for providing ongoing support over the years including during the pandemic. “We took over our franchise on June 1, 2007. My wife Nancy came from a customer service background. Previously, I was an operations manager for Xerox Business Services (XBS) in-plant customers, and in sales as a Production Print Specialist for Konica Minolta and for Ricoh. While we both brought industry skills to the business, the ongoing support and systems Minuteman Press provides has been a great help.” “I’d like to congratulate Karl and Nancy Chapple for winning Small Business of the Year for all of the fantastic work they do for their clients and in their community,” says Bob Heimbuch, Regional Vice President (Mid-Atlantic and Pittsburgh), Minuteman Press International. “Minuteman Press Beaver Falls is a real asset to both their local community as well as the Minuteman Press franchise family.” For more information on Minuteman Press Beaver Falls, visit https://www.beaverfalls.minutemanpress.com.

Comodo

Comodo, the world’s leader of next-generation cybersecurity announced a partnership with BluGrass Technologies. Together Comodo and BluGrass will bring Comodo’s cybersecurity solutions, including the Dragon platform with advanced endpoint protection (AEP), SOC-as-a-Platform (SOCaaP™), Managed Detection and Response (MDR), mobile device management (MDM), Secure Internet Gateway (SIG), and Secure Email Gateway (SEG) to the Middle East marketplace. “We needed a comprehensive cybersecurity and endpoint management solution—one that would enable our customers to protect and manage their endpoints, internet connections, email, network, and infrastructure, and also monitor the complete security operations through a SOC, with integrated SIEM—all from a single vendor,” said Tony Alam, CEO of BluGrass Technologies. He continued, “We selected Comodo over other cybersecurity providers because it delivers a suite of protection that is both lightweight and scalable and provides a multi-layered defense. We can now offer customers one security solution for endpoints and infrastructure— both on-premises and in the cloud, with easy integrations, and at an affordable price.” Comodo’s Dragon platform with AEP is a complete cloud-native framework that delivers a zero-trust architecture to protect and defend endpoints. Its patent-pending auto containment technology has active breach protection that neutralizes ransomware, malware, and cyber-attacks. The auto containment runs an unknown executable in a kernel API virtualized mode, thereby offering attack surface reduction (ASR) which neutralizes ransomware attacks. Comodo’s Valkyrie is a file verdict system that analyzes and gives a trusted verdict for 100% of files on the network. Tony said, “Comodo’s Dragon platform with AEP provides a multi-layered defense that allows unfettered access to all known good files, denies access to any known malicious files, and automatically contains files found to be unknown. As a result, we are seeing much fewer security incidents.” Comodo’s MDR is a 24/7 Security Operations Center delivered as a Service (SOCaaS). It provides a team of security researchers that extends a company’s IT team to safeguard IT systems and infrastructure. Using Comodo SIEM and endpoint management technologies along with threat intelligence from the Comodo Threat Lab, our security experts hunt for vulnerabilities, continuously monitoring IT systems for indications of compromise, and contain advanced threats. Comodo’s SOCaaP is the world’s first and only complete, next-gen SOC-as-a-platform offering, which includes people, process, and technology. It offers full white-label capability that makes it easy to add managed security services to a portfolio. Alan Knepfer, President and Chief Revenue Office at Comodo said, “This partnership empowers BluGrass Technologies to offer the only cybersecurity that stops undetectable threats to the Middle East marketplace. Their customers now have access to a comprehensive cybersecurity suite that neutralizes zero-day threats that AI, ML, and other technologies miss.” About BluGrass Technologies Founded in 2016, BluGrass Technologies (BGT) is an IT managed services provider with a permanent presence in 5 Middle Eastern countries.
