AI can speed up daily tasks and improve productivity but it won’t fix poor data. It’s always worth remembering that doing the wrong things faster is still doing the wrong things! So, like everything in life – you get out of AI what you put in.

Don’t know what that means? Well, read on and you’ll find out!

While your machine might be running fine, old operating systems like Windows 10 are causing a major security risk for your business.

Businesses often consider IT spend to be an unwanted but necessary cost. That mindset ignores what IT can really do support growth and progress within a company. Let us explain.

Atom’s Head of Cyber, Matt Dunn, outlines four key takeaways from the Global Cybersecurity Outlook 2026 which was presented at this year’s World Economic Forum.

AI has slipped into everyday work even faster than most of us would have predicted two years ago. One minute it was something we were all cautiously testing, and the next it became part of how teams write documents, prepare plans and even think through problems.

2025 has certainly been a wild ride for technology. The past 12 months have played out like a superhero blockbuster, with the positive aspects of tech (like sustainability and innovation) donning their capes to tackle the evils of ever-evolving cybercrime.

As we approach the end of a year that has been turbulent, at best, for the retail industry, Black Friday season represents both an opportunity to boost revenues and a potentially hazardous time.

By effectively preparing for the worst outcome, hospitality businesses can help to maintain a five-star service (or near enough)

In 2025, cybercrime is big news. It feels like every week there’s a new household name coming under attack from one hacking group or another. From Marks & Spencer to Harrods to the Co-Op, it seems as if every organisation is suffering a breach from a crime group with sinisterly cool names like Scattered Spider, DragonForce or REvil. 

In 2025 the world is filled with incredible technologies and amazing innovations. We may not be teleporting around the globe or time-travelling just yet, but it’s sometimes worth stopping and taking stock of just how far we’ve come in the recent years – not to mention decades.

Downtime isn’t just inconvenient, it’s expensive.

Atom’s senior cyber security consultant, Daniel Baird, explains how AI is changing the game for businesses and making data protection an increasingly complex issue.

We are delighted to announce a new partnership with The National Museum of Computing at Bletchley Park. As Foundation Sponsors we will be supporting the museum in their work in the educational sector and helping to raise awareness surrounding the history and development of information technology.

Atom Technical Director, Leon Hughes, reflects on the business’s recent milestone as it closed off its third year of accounts. Like every start-up, the company has enjoyed a rollercoaster ride since it was incorporated in 2022. 

But, as Leon explains, Atom’s customer-centric approach and strong company culture has proven to be a recipe for success.

Atom Project Manager, Sophie Place, offers her insight into one of the most widespread IT considerations currently facing organisations of all shapes, sizes and sectors . . . the Microsoft Windows 10 End of Support (EoS) on 14^th October 2025.

Let’s be honest, we all get excited about new hardware. There’s a reason why the latest Apple launch draws eyeballs from around the world each year. And whether it’s the new iPhone 465 or the CyberTruck Model 17X, our inner consumer loves to see the next big reveal from behind the velvet curtain at a launch event.

As we wave goodbye to January, many people have already allowed their resolutions to fall by the wayside. Best intentions to hit the gym, overhaul the diet and cold plunge every day are beginning to fade and most of us are simply focusing on getting on with 2025 in the best way we can.
