Unlocking SME Security
SME's face growing cybersecurity threats. Our comprehensive security audit offers proactive defense, protecting your business from evolving risks and ensuring resilience.

Common Myths That Get SMEs Compromised
Many SMEs mistakenly believe they are too small to be targeted, but their fewer defenses actually make them prime, easier targets for cyberattacks.
Relying solely on traditional antivirus and firewalls is insufficient; modern cyber threats are sophisticated enough to bypass these basic defenses.
Even with strong passwords, employees remain vulnerable. Sophisticated phishing and social engineering tactics often exploit human error, not just weak credentials.
Unpatched, cracked or outdated software, even from reputable vendors, creates critical vulnerabilities that cybercriminals actively exploit.
Any customer data—from personal details to intellectual property—holds significant value on the dark web and is a lucrative target for cybercriminals.

Why SMEs Are Prime Targets for Cyberattacks
SMEs are prime cyberattack targets due to a false sense of security and fewer defenses. Statistics confirm this reality:
43%
Targeted Vulnerability
of all cyberattacks specifically target small businesses and startups, exploiting common weaknesses like outdated systems and employee vulnerabilities.
78%
Frequent Incidents
of MSMEs in the Asia-Pacific region experienced at least one significant cyber incident in the past year, ranging from ransomware to data breaches.
14%
Limited Preparedness
of small businesses are truly prepared to detect, respond to, or recover from a cyberattack, often lacking dedicated IT security staff or incident response plans.
Too often, firms seek help only after an attack, incurring costly recovery efforts and suffering significant financial and reputational damage. In India, cyber fraud cost ₹11,333 crore in the first 9 months of 2024, largely through phishing and data theft targeting unsuspecting SMEs.
