1 in 5 Small Businesses Will Suffer a Cyber Breach this Year
WHY? Cybercriminals leverage the path of least resistance.
That means businesses with limited time and resources towards cybersecurity become a prime target.
Could your business be in their sights?
Why Is Your Business at Risk?
Customer Data Makes You Vulnerable
ALL DATA IS VALUABLE TO CYBERCRIMINALS OR HACKERS BECAUSE THEY BE SOLD ON THE DARK WEB OR HOLD YOU RANSOM.
Storing and accessing customer data mixed with limited resources to dedicate to cybersecurity means your organization may be at a higher risk of suffering a cyber-attack.
92% Data Breaches due to Human Error
EMPLOYEES ARE UNAWARE OF RISKS
66% of cybercriminals rank email phishing as their attack vector of choice. Unsuspecting employees may be fooled by an illegitimate email without thinking twice.
Password Reuse is an Epidemic
IT’S EASIER TO USE AND REMEMBER ONLY ONE PASSWORD
59% of individuals admitted to mostly or always using the same password, despite 91% knowing it’s a security risk.* If a breached password is reused, the subsequent accounts are also at risk of being hacked.

CEOs, CFOs or Business Owners Are Too Busy
HACKERS ARE TARGETTING BUSINESS OWNERS AND C-LEVEL EXECUTIVES TO GAIN CORPORATE ACCOUNTS 🎯
Did you know executives like you are 12 times more likely to be targeted by cybercriminals because you can access all corporate accounts and financial systems? It’s time to take action and protect yourself. You may already know this: executives like you are at higher risk of being phished, scammed, or hacked than the rest of your team.
You might say to yourself: I don’t have time for this. Would you have time to deal with a hacker impersonating you, emailing all your business contacts, friends, or teammates, and giving them ransomware?

It’s not a one-time event but an ongoing commitment to keep your systems resilient against evolving threats.

If your business is looking for break-fix support or hourly IT services, we may not be for you because we cannot fully manage your risks and more importantly, it creates a trust issue in our relationship.

For a business with 10 to 50 employees, IT support is a crucial investment to ensure smooth operations and data security. This support includes system maintenance, cybersecurity measures, help desk services, data backup, and software updates. As an IT manager and business owner, allocating a reasonable budget for IT support is essential to prevent downtime, protect against cyber threats, and ensure the firm’s efficiency and success in the digital era. Neglecting IT support can lead to potential vulnerabilities and higher costs in the long run. Thus, viewing IT support as a necessary investment is vital for sustaining your firm’s operations effectively and securely.
