Yesterday secure. Today vulnerable?
🛑 “We had it in order, didn’t we?”
Many SMBs think their IT security is fine … until things go wrong.
Because what was safe yesterday may suddenly be a risk today.
An automatic update that didn’t run.
An employee accidentally clicking on a phishing link.
Or an old password that still allows access.
The biggest challenge? Making sure you are protected
For 55% of SMBs, keeping IT security in order is an ongoing concern.
Not because they are doing nothing – but because IT is evolving at lightning speed. So do cyber threats.
And that’s where it falters.
Many organizations get stuck in a one-time solution:
-
“We have antivirus.”
-
“We once set up backups,” he said.
-
“We use MFA … right?”
But safety is not a snapshot in time. It is an ongoing process.
What can you do?
✔️ Work with automatic updates
✔️ Provide monitoring that alerts you before anything goes wrong
✔️ Think in a “zero trust” approach: trust nothing and no one by default
That way you prevent your organization from becoming vulnerable – without slowing down your work.
🔐 Want to make sure your security is still correct?
