Protection for smaller businesses - cyber security is more critical than ever before

Some small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) consider cyber security either a luxury or an issue to be dealt with once their budget is a bit larger.

Unfortunately, it is these businesses that are most likely to be targeted for cybercrime.

In fact, 43 percent of cyberattacks target small businesses. Criminals know larger corporations have strong security systems, but smaller businesses frequently leave themselves vulnerable.

If you run an SMB and cyber security is not yet a priority, it's time to change that.

Luckily, there are things you can do to protect yourself, even when resources are limited, and we can help you ensure you spend your money wisely and get the best value from your spend to protect you where it matters.

There are a lot of other things to worry about right now, for businesses of all sizes, but cyber security is more critical now than it ever have been.

A breach now on top of everything else that is going on would likely be catastrophic to any business.

Talk to us today to find out the very real ways we can help you.
