Scope and proportion.
WHAT IT COVERS
Protecting your devices, accounts, data and people from misuse.
WHAT IT IS NOT
Only a technical matter Something only large organisations need Something a single product solves
WHAT SMALL BUSINESSES ACTUALLY FACE
Automated attacks that target anyone Fraud aimed at money Compromised accounts Lost or stolen devices Mistakes by people
WHAT MOST INCIDENTS INVOLVE
Something out of date, a reused password, or a person being deceived.
Not sophisticated attacks.
WHY THAT MATTERS
The defences that work are unglamorous and cheap.
WHAT TO PRIORITISE
Updates Unique passwords with a second factor Backups you have tested People who know what to check
WHAT NOT TO DO
Buy a product and consider the matter closed Assume you are too small to be affected
WHERE TO START
Establish what you actually hold and what its loss would cost.
