The Benefits of Outsourcing Cannabis IT Support
Outsourcing gives cannabis businesses a reliable, right-sized IT engine without the overhead of building it in-house. You get a team that understands cultivation, processing, and retail workflows and keeps critical systems secure, compliant, and online. With Blade Technologies as your IT partner, you gain:
- Compliance Confidence: Stay audit-ready with support for seed-to-sale reporting, POS requirements, and PCI considerations for card transactions.
- Stronger Security: Proactive patching, endpoint protection, MFA, and 24/7 network monitoring reduce the risk of patient/customer data loss and business IP interference.
- Higher Uptime: Prevent issues before they impact cultivation controls, inventory systems, or dispensary POS so sales and operations keep moving.
- Scalable Support: Open a new dispensary or expand a grow with standardized buildouts, documented configurations, and proven onboarding processes.
The Importance of Cybersecurity in the Cannabis Industry
Cannabis companies are high-value targets. Point-of-sale systems, seed-to-sale platforms, camera storage, and cultivation controls can all be attack surfaces, and a single breach can disrupt operations, expose sensitive data, and jeopardize compliance. Blade Technologies helps you secure every layer, monitor continuously, and respond quickly so you can keep selling, growing, and scaling with confidence.
We reduce risk by providing continuous remediation for endpoints, servers, and network gear, using tested backups and clear recovery objectives for fast restoration in the event of a breach. We also provide security awareness training, phishing simulations, and clean onboarding/offboarding.
