How can businesses fortify their defences against cyber attacks?
As organisations work more flexibly, with employees connecting from remote locations across the world and 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, effective cyber security has never been more critical. Protecting sensitive information on your employees’ mobile devices, and the systems and infrastructure that manage them, remains a top priority – especially as cyber threats become more devious and strategic. Even a temporary breach can result in stolen data, financial penalties, operational disruption and reputational damage. It’s a complex challenge, which demands a comprehensive solution.

Are you prepared to avoid becoming another cyber victim?
In the ever-evolving landscape of business security, SMEs face a daunting challenge. Sharp's 2023 research¹, surveyed 5,770 IT decision-makers across 11 European countries, revealing a concerning reality – one third of businesses have fallen victim to computer virus attacks, with an equal number expressing heightened worry about IT security breaches compared to the previous year.
A third admitted to succumbing to phishing, malware, and data loss with the consequences extending beyond immediate disruptions, affecting profit, loyalty, and reputation. Shockingly, 59% of businesses haven't bolstered security training post-adoption of hybrid work models, leaving vulnerabilities unaddressed.
The statistics underline a grim scenario: cyber threats are on the rise, yet 56% of businesses won't increase their IT security budgets. The illusion of preparedness prevails, with 68% lacking confidence in managing risks effectively. Unfortunately, most businesses only discover they’ve been hacked once it’s too late. Act now, and fortify your business cyber security defences – the sooner you act, the better protected you will be.

Why is business cyber security essential for your success?
In today's landscape, cyber security poses several challenges that make it difficult for businesses to decide whether to invest in it or not. Many businesses hold common misconceptions such as believing they are immune to cyber threats or that they lack the necessary budget. However, it's crucial to recognise that cyber security is a global priority that has never been more important.
The risks involved in cyber-attacks are substantial, directly impacting business continuity by causing data loss and reduced productivity. Moreover, these attacks come with a significant price tag. According to Cybersecurity Ventures, the cost of cybercrime was predicted more than 7 trillion euros in 2023 and to grow to over 9 trillion euros by 2025.
Failing to comply with GDPR regulations can result in severe fines and consequences of non-compliance go far beyond financial penalties. Organisations must consider the potential for negative publicity and damage to their reputation and customer relationships.
Given the ever-changing landscape of cyber threats, with attacks becoming more frequent and sophisticated, it is imperative for your business to be fully equipped to tackle the latest cyber risks. Stay ahead of the curve and ensure your organisation is prepared to defend against these evolv
