In my last post, I identified the need to protect your business from information theft. In my humble opinion, most small-medium business don’t pay sufficient attention to this risk. Here are some interesting statistics about cybercrime’s wide reach:
1 in 6 – Number of companies where employee fell for a simulated phishing email scam
$5.9 million – Median annual cost of cybercrime per U.S. company
47% – Number of U.S. small businesses that provide cybersecurity training to employees
The good news is that your security system doesn’t need to be perfect but rather, it just needs to be better than most.
