Let’s face it—cybersecurity is often an afterthought for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). It’s easy to assume that cybercriminals are only interested in large enterprises. But the truth is:
SMBs are now the top target for cyberattacks.
43% of all cyberattacks now target SMBs
60% of SMBs go out of business within 6 months of a major breach
The average cost of a data breach for an SMB? Over $200,000
If cybersecurity isn’t a priority today, it could be a crisis tomorrow.
Without proper defenses, SMBs are exposed to increasingly aggressive threats:
Downtime, recovery, legal penalties, and lost business can drain cash fast. Most SMBs simply don’t have the reserves to bounce back.
Sensitive customer and employee data can be stolen or sold—wrecking trust and triggering compliance violations.
Ransomware can halt your business overnight. If your systems are locked, your revenue stops, too.
Would you trust a business that couldn’t protect your personal information? Neither will your clients.
“We’re too small to be a target.”
(Hackers love small businesses because they’re easier to breach.)
“We can’t afford enterprise tools.”
(That’s no longer true—more on that below.)
“We have antivirus—we’re fine.”
(Spoiler: Antivirus is not enough to stop phishing, ransomware, or zero-day attacks.)
You don’t need an in-house security team. You just need the right partner and proactive strategy.
Advanced threats demand advanced protection.
MXDR (Managed Extended Detection and Response), powered by a 24/7 Security Operations Center, gives you real-time threat detection, automated response, and expert analysis—without hiring a full-time cybersecurity team.
Assume everything is a threat until it’s verified.
Zero Trust isolates suspicious files in secure, virtual containers—so even if malware gets in, it can’t go anywhere.
Block stolen credentials from being used.
MFA is one of the easiest, most effective tools to stop unauthorized access.
Know your weaknesses before hackers do.
Automated vulnerability management tools identify and fix gaps in your systems before attackers can exploit them.
If ransomware hits, don’t pay—restore.
Follow the 3-2-1-0 strategy:
3 copies of your data
2 different types of storage
1 offsite, immutable backup
0 errors during restoration testing
