State-sponsored hackers and malicious software don't just target the "big guys" anymore. Keeping your customers data safe means keeping your business safe. Your passwords, your email, your business management systems, and the private information of your customers are all targets for bad actors.
Many hacks go undetected for months or even years. Are you already compromised? How would you know?
According to recent surveys, only around 40% of small businesses have a dedicated Information Security Policy in place, meaning roughly 60% do not have a cybersecurity policy established. Despite being mandatory for all businesses that process, store, or transmit payment card information, in 2010, only 28% of small businesses reported being compliant with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). Although improvements have occurred, in 2024, nearly 80% of all (including small and medium-sized) organizations still report noncompliance.
Each small company without any IT experience or personnel stands ripe for data breaches. One survey found that 60% of small companies have to shut down permanently within six months of being hacked. The loss of reputation, loss of customer trust, and sometimes even heavy fines levied by the servicing bank grow to an insurmountable level.

The expertise gained provides clear direction for simple but comprehensive cybersecurity controls geared at removing risk without increasing friction, frustration and complexity.
