Helping SMEs to boost their cyber security with CyberWISER Light


A new report issued by the Federation of Small Businesses (FSB) revealed that SMEs are actually more exposed to cyber attack than lager companies.

According to the study, smaller firms are collectively attacked seven million times per year, costing the UK economy an estimated £5.26 billion.
The most serious threats are managing malware which cost £7.5bn last year while data theft incidents cost £6.2bn.

Cyber crime is also costing small business disproportionately more than large companies  when adjusted for organisational size – and is further magnified by the increased importance of the internet small firms, with 99% of the UK’s 5.4 million small firms rating the internet as being highly important to their business, with two in three (66%) offering, or planning to offer, goods and services online.
