Dayton, Ohio (April 23, 2022) – It is absolutely wrong to believe that data breaches happen to companies that are worth millions and billions. While it is true that it is the big companies that make all the headlines, it is wrong to assume that small and mid-sized businesses are not affected. According to a study, 43% of all breaches had occurred at small businesses.
Unfortunately, over the years, cyber crimes are starting to increase and it is unfortunately true but small businesses are easy targets for hackers, because they lack the sufficient budgets to protect themselves against all types of attacks. Sometimes, they also feel that due to their size, they don’t need much protection. It is true that compared to multinational corporations, they require much less security spending, but it is wrong to have an attitude that it won’t happen to them just because they are a small business.
Some of the reasons why small businesses are targeted is because many of them hold sensitive information related to customers, and it may be used for data theft. They might also store all payment information related to their customers, which can be a goldmine for hackers. And some businesses can also have intellectual property, which can be even worth much more.
This is why cybersecurity should never be ignored, and must be prioritized from the start. It is important to encourage all employees to follow certain security protocols, rather than being scared of something wrong occurring.
