FAQs

Straightforward, expert answers to the questions you face when securing small and midsize businesses, from assessing risks and implementing defences to managing incidents and ensuring ongoing protection.

1. What are the biggest cyber threats facing SMBs today, and how can we proactively protect against them?
With threat actors becoming increasingly sophisticated and able to use AI to scale, small businesses can no longer rely on “security through obscurity”. Top dangers include ransomware, phishing, credential theft, and insider threats. To protect SMBs, implement multi-layered security, including endpoint detection and response (EDR), web filtering, MFA, patch management, and continuous monitoring with AI-driven threat detection.
Adopt a Zero Trust approach with seamless MFA, single sign-on (SSO), and background threat monitoring. Use automated security tools that minimise alerts while only escalating real threats. Security should be user-friendly to encourage compliance without creating frustration.
Use interactive, bite-sized training (e.g., microlearning, gamification) and conduct regular phishing simulations to reinforce learning. Cybersecurity should be part of company culture, not a one-time event.
Look for solutions offering unified threat management, AI-powered detection, and automated remediation. MSP-friendly platforms should allow multi-tenant management to efficiently oversee multiple clients from a single dashboard.

Until recently, security standards such as ISO27001 or Essential Eight have been unrealistic for small businesses to meet. Today, we can align security measures with appropriate standards such as SMB1001.
