Empowering Charities and Non-Profits with Free Penetration Testing Services

Newark, DE, 21st June 2024- In today’s digital age, cybersecurity is essential for all organizations, regardless of size or sector. For charities and non-profits, the stakes are even higher. These organizations often handle sensitive donor information, personal data of beneficiaries, and crucial operational details. Yet, they typically operate with limited resources, making them prime targets for cybercriminals. A breach can not only lead to financial loss but also erode the trust of donors and the community. By prioritizing cybersecurity, charities and non-profits can safeguard their valuable data, ensure the continuity of their vital services, and maintain the confidence of their supporters.

This is where Upload Security steps in. As a leading cybersecurity and penetration testing company, we are committed to giving back to charities and non-profits that do so much for their communities and the world. They are now offering free website and network scans, with certified engineers verifying the results before delivery. There are no commitments or hidden costs—this service is completely free.

They were inspired to start this initiative after seeing Save the Children International suffer a cyber attack last year. Their research revealed that they were not alone; many other charities and non-profits have been targeted by these malicious attacks. Therefore, they want to do their part to protect these essential organizations and help them continue their invaluable work without the fear of cyber threats.

They invite all eligible charities and non-profits to take advantage of this offer, which runs until 2025 and may extend further depending on demand and availability. Eligibility will be determined based on necessity and resource availability.

Contact them today to determine eligibility and schedule your free security scan to strengthen your cybersecurity defenses. You can reach them at contact@uploadsecurity.com or visit their website and fill out the contact form at uploadsecurity.com.

ProLux Energy and SolarShips Installation Services Announce Merger to Revolutionize Solar Services in Illinois

Montgomery County, IL, June 21, 2024 — ProLux Energy, a prominent solar energy solutions provider, is merging with SolarShips Installation Services, a leading installer in the renewable energy sector from Arizona. This strategic alliance represents a significant milestone in the solar industry for Illinois, consolidating sales and installation capabilities under one roof to enhance service quality and job opportunities.

“We are excited to embark on this new chapter with SolarShips,” said Nate Butterfield, Owner of ProLux. “This merger represents more than just a business decision; we aim to set a new standard for solar installations in Illinois now that we have the ability to control the timeline for our customers.”

According to Nate, the decision to merge was driven by a shared vision to elevate the quality of solar services in the region. Arizona, known for its highly competitive solar market, demands excellence from its solar providers. This alliance brings that renowned standard of excellence from Arizona to Illinois, where the demand for high-quality solar installations has been on the rise.

With this merger also comes a commitment to fostering economic development in Illinois by creating job opportunities for experienced workers and electricians. The duo have since moved their operations to the historic Hillsboro Glass Factory in Montgomery County in order to have ample space for their operations and serve sustainable growth for the community.

Moving forward, ProLux and SolarShips are poised to transform the solar landscape in Illinois by delivering quality service, transparency, and sustainable energy solutions to homeowners and businesses alike.

Lift-Off and Other Diecast Hinges for Heavy Enclosure Doors – from FDB Panel Fittings

Isleworth, United Kingdom, June 21, 2024 — FDB Panel Fittings are pleased to announce that they now offer traditional style diecast hinges for use on the outside of enclosures where they can facilitate lift-off operation, to ensure easy removal of doors for access to internal equipment during installation or maintenance. They provide a robust door mounting with an industrial aesthetic that suits heavy doors and multi-compartment cabinets with lay-on doors, which is ideal for industrial/commercial/office/retail enclosures for machine tool equipment – also factory controls, distribution panels, HVAC access, safety guards, IT/Telco cabinets, processing equipment and similar.

This popular range of hinges are now available ex-stock for urgent delivery from the FDB Online store. Mounting is by means of cast-in mounting studs which are simply inserted through pre-punched holes and secured with internal nuts. Installation can be arranged with both hinges oriented in the same direction for lift-off or with one up and one down to lock the door in place so it is not removable. Extra-large or heavy doors may be accommodated with three or four hinge units to provide additional capacity.

Other diecast hinges are offered in the associated range where butt hinges and pedestal hinges suit flush doors and internal hinges provide a fully concealed installation with separate screw fixing. Diecast hinges can be supplied in black or natural self-colour for overpainting to match the panel appearance. Internally mounted hinges do not lift off and are fixed with separate screws.
