We often hear that from SMBs when it comes to cybersecurity. Understandable ā if you donāt make millions in sales or process sensitive customer data, why would a cybercriminal target you?
But did you know that smaller companies in particular are more likely to be targets of cyber attacks?
They often have:
šø Fewer security measures
šø No IT department
šø And⦠a false sense of security
Fair is fair: what about you guys?
ā
Are all laptops and phones really secure?
ā
Is everyone using strong passwords as well as MFA?
ā
Is there a backup if things really go wrong?
If not, you are more vulnerable than you think. And our poll on LinkedIn¹ shows that:
Which IT vulnerability worries you the most?
š 64% chose: Lack of awareness
16%: Outdated systems 14%: No backup policy 7%: Bad passwordsš

The biggest risk? Your people often donāt know š
Many IT problems start not with technology, but with behavior. Consider:
-
Unknowingly clicking on a wrong link
-
Saving files locally āfor convenienceā
-
Having no idea what to do in the event of an incident
You can only work safely if your people know HOW to work safely.
