1 in 3 Small to Mid-Sized Businesses Fall Victim to a Data Breach Why? Cybercriminals leverage the path of least resistance. That means businesses that have limited time and resources to put towards cybersecurity become a prime target. Could your business be in their sights?
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.
66% of cybercriminals rank email phishing as their attack vector of choice. Unsuspecting employees may be fooled by an illegitimate email without thinking twice.

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.
48% of hackers and incident respondents spend 1-5 hours per week keeping up with security news, trends, and technologies. Technology is a reactive way of thinking, so how can we compete? We need to take a proactive approach to cyber security to stop cybercriminals in their tracks by strengthening employees - your first layer of defense.
