How Microsoft Defender for Business Can Protect Your Business from Cyber Attacks

Learn How Outside Help Can Safeguard Your Business with Microsoft Defender for Business

Why Cybersecurity Matters for Small Businesses

Cybersecurity isn’t just for large corporations and governments. Small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) are equally vulnerable to cyber attacks, phishing, malware, and data loss. According to a UK government report, 46% of small to medium-sized businesses experienced a cyber attack or breach in the last 12 months, with an average breach cost of £8,460. Such attacks can damage your reputation, disrupt operations, compromise customer data, and lead to legal liabilities. This underscores the need for a robust security solution to protect your business from cyber threats.
