And 61% of SMBs were the target of a cyberattack in 2021. These are the size of companies most likely not to have an IT department or a very small one. It makes them vulnerable targets.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>TRAINING: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Being cyber-savvy begins with your employees. It is mission-critical that they are trained to do their part in keeping the \u201cbad guys\u201d out. Conducting awareness training with frequent refresher sessions is a must. Teach them about common social tactics, phishing, and the importance of not clicking on suspicious links or downloading attachments from unknown sources. Drive this home and make sure they understand this training is beneficial for their home computer use.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>PASSWORD POLICIES: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ensure your password policies won\u2019t allow for easy-to-guess passwords like 1-2-3-4 or a child\u2019s name, for example. Enforce rules about requiring frequent password changes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>MULTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is worth exploring the use of Multi-Factor Authentication<\/span><b>\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">for accessing sensitive systems and data. It will provide an additional layer of security even if a password is compromised.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>FIREWALLS AND MORE: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you haven\u2019t already implemented firewalls and intrusion detection\/prevention systems to monitor and block suspicious network activity, you should do so now.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>SECURITY CULTURE: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Foster a culture of cybersecurity awareness and responsibility throughout the organization. Encourage employees to be vigilant and report any suspicious activity promptly.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is not a comprehensive treatise on all the actions you can take to keep your business and its data secure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Working with a company that specializes in cybersecurity is the best way to protect yourself.
