Calling all Small Businesses! There are detrimental impacts if you open your doors to a Cyber Breach

Data Breach

It cannot be denied that Cybersecurity risks are becoming more severe. With the U.S. being the global leader in data breach costs, ‘achieving’ the highest data breach cost ($9.48 million), it can make you wonder...how did we come to this?

Cyber incidents can significantly influence business operations, especially with start-ups and small enterprises and that is because many of them believe they are just too insignificant to be targeted by cyber incidents.

Many fail to comprehend the severity until it's too late. The reluctance to allocate time and resources to a cybersecurity plan stems from various factors, including:

A belief that they won't fall victim to data breaches
Limited budget allocation for cybersecurity programs
Reliance on outdated and unsupported systems
Challenges of using software from outdated devices

All reasons why cybercriminals find it easy to exploit small businesses.

Having a lack of cybersecurity training within small businesses makes employees susceptible to social engineering scams, malicious threats, or inadvertently sharing logins, sensitive data, and other vital company and customer information.

Now is the time for small businesses to prioritize cybersecurity and protect their operations, reputation, and financial stability in the face of ever-evolving cyber threats!

Safeguard your business from Cyber Attacks!
