How can I improve cyber protection for my SME?

Now that the realisation that cyber attacks are not just a problem for larger companies has hit home, it’s a question more small business owners are asking us, and rightly so.

Cyber threats aren’t just targeting the big players anymore. SMEs are often seen as easier targets due to weaker defences and limited resources.

Here’s how to start strengthening your cyber security — without breaking the bank:

1: Start with an honest risk assessment – You can’t fix what you can’t see. Know your weak points.
2: Train your team – Most breaches start with human error. A little awareness goes a long way.
3: Keep your systems and software updated. Yes, it’s boring. But it’s also your first line of defence.
4: Use strong passwords & multi-factor authentication – Everywhere, not just for admin accounts!
5: Back up your data and test those backups regularly. Disaster recovery starts before disaster strikes!
6: Get expert help. A technical consultant can assess your setup, recommend practical solutions, and help implement protections tailored to your business.
