If you own a small business it’s far more important than you might think to take some time to protect yourself from hackers and cyber-criminals.

But we get it…It’s a hassle, and unless you are running some sort of IT related company, the idea of implementing effective cybersecurity might seem as daunting as trying to plug the hole in the Titanic with a cork and some sticky tape.

Don’t panic; this guide will help take the worry and the stress away so you can concentrate on running your business.
This is not the kind of image you ever want to see on your computer screen. But if you don’t have a cybersecurity policy in place, it could quite easily happen to you.
As a small business owner, you may think that like 87% of other small business owners (according to a recent survey) you are somehow immune from the perils of hackers and cyber-attacks.

After all, the cybersecurity news stories seem to surround the hacking of international banks, multinational corporations and government agencies. It can appear that cyber-criminals should be more concerned about trying to hack the companies with all the millions in their bank accounts and their limitless deep pockets.

It would be fantastic if this was indeed the case, but the truth is unfortunately much more stark.

Recent studies have shown that small businesses are regularly targeted. And tragically, the statistics also show that small business owners are among the worst prepared to deal with cyber-attacks.
87% of small businesses don’t believe they are a target for hackers.

The cold hard truth of the matter is that small business owners are incredibly appealing targets for hackers because they know that they are intrinsically less careful, and less likely to be prepared for a cyber-security incident.
