As organizations invest more heavily in their IT infrastructure, managed services providers (MSPs) and administrators should consider how they can keep digital environments secure and organized. By taking the time to reduce organizational IT complexity and align end-user behavior with business goals, network professionals can do their part to provide a unified IT experience, support overall objectives, and—most importantly—prevent potentially crippling data breaches.

For MSP customers across a wide range of industries, the importance of taking these steps has never been more pronounced or more immediate. In fact, a report from [<span class="linkline">Juniper Research</span>](https://www.juniperresearch.com/) found that cybercrime will cost businesses more than $2 trillion in 2019. While many of these costs will come from external bad actors carrying out brute force attacks on organizations and infecting networks with malware, some breaches come from within. In fact, [<span class="linkline">Verizon’s 2019 Data Breach Investigations report</span>](https://enterprise.verizon.com/resources/reports/2019-data-breach-investigations-report.pdf) concludes that insiders caused 34% of all data breaches carried out in 2018—although many were inadvertent.

# Blink Codes and Beep Codes for Intel® NUC

The power LED on the Intel® NUC blinks in a pattern if an error occurs during POST. Intel NUCs that include a front panel audio jack produce a beep pattern that you can hear through headphones, or speakers plugged into the jack.

**Patterns and solutions**

<table class="icstable tablesaw" data-tablesaw-minimap="" data-tablesaw-mode="swipe" id="bkmrk-sequence%2Fpattern-mea" style="width: 799px; border-style: solid; height: 790px;"><tbody><tr style="border-style: solid;"><td class="icstablehead" style="width: 241px; border-style: solid;">**Sequence/pattern**</td><td class="icstablehead" style="width: 168px; border-style: solid;">**Meaning**</td><td class="icstablehead" style="width: 390px; border-style: solid;">**Troubleshooting steps**</td></tr><tr style="border-style: solid;"><td style="width: 241px; border-style: solid;">**3 blinks (3 beeps)**

On-off (1.0 second each) three times, then 2.5-second pause (off).

The pattern repeats until the computer is powered off.

</td><td style="width: 168px; border-style: solid;">Memory error</td><td style="width: 390px; border-style: solid;">Make sure you are using the [correct voltage memory](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000005561.html) for your Intel® NUC.

Other tips:

- Remove and reseat the memory.
- Make sure the contacts on the memory and the socket are clean.
- Check for a faulty memory module by trying the memory in a known good system.

If the Intel NUC has two memory slots:

- Try using just one memory module at a time, swapping it between the upper and lower memory slots.
- Try using memory modules from the same manufacturer with the same part number and speed.

It's rare that this blink pattern would appear on an Intel NUC that has the memory modules soldered down on the board. If it does, it likely means the soldered down memory has failed. In this case, contact Intel Customer support using the link below.

</td></tr><tr style="border-style: solid;"><td style="width: 241px; border-style: solid;">**Continual blinks**

Off when the update starts, then on for 0.5 seconds, then off for 0.5 seconds.

The pattern repeats until the BIOS update is complete.

 </td><td style="width: 168px; border-style: solid;">Computer is in Sleep mode (S3 state). This is normal operation.</td><td style="width: 390px; border-style: solid;">This blink pattern can be turned off in BIOS: 1. Press **F2** during boot to enter BIOS Setup.
2. Go to **Advanced** &gt; **Power.**
3. In the Secondary Power Settings pane, set **S3 State Indicator** (or S3 Indicator Brightness) to **OFF**.
4. Press **F10** to save and exit BIOS Setup.
