Hi everyone,
I wanted to open a discussion about a growing concern that’s been on my mind: cybersecurity risks for small businesses. As someone running a small retail business, I’ve recently noticed an uptick in phishing attempts and suspicious login attempts on our systems. It’s made me wonder how prepared we are to handle a potential cyberattack.
Small businesses often assume they’re not a target because of their size, but I’ve read that hackers specifically target smaller companies due to weaker security measures. This could lead to data breaches, financial loss, or damage to reputation.
How are others here addressing cybersecurity in their businesses? Are you using professional services, specific software, or even conducting staff training to reduce risks? Additionally, if anyone has recommendations for affordable and effective solutions, I’d really appreciate it.
