Cybercrime continues to rise, and small and mid-sized businesses are prime targets. The good news: many of the most damaging attacks are preventable with strong fundamentals.
Enable multi-factor authentication
MFA adds a critical extra layer of protection, stopping most credential-based attacks in their tracks.
Keep everything updated
Unpatched software is one of the most common entry points for attackers. Automate updates wherever possible.
Back up your data
Follow the 3-2-1 rule: three copies, on two types of media, with one kept off-site or in the cloud.
Train your team
Human error is a leading cause of breaches. Regular, realistic training dramatically reduces click-through on phishing.
Create an incident response plan
When (not if) an incident occurs, a clear plan helps you respond quickly and minimise damage.
