The essential cyber security toolkit for SMBs
Practical tips for cyber security training


Provided by
For modern-day organisations, falling victim to a cyber attack is no longer a question of “if” but “when.” We are now online in almost every aspect of our working lives – communicating with colleagues and stakeholders, sharing critical information and jumping from site to site.
With cyber crime on the rise, all companies must have a plan in place to mitigate risks and educate employees on staying safe. Due to a lack of resources, small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) are often less prepared to deal with security threats than their larger counterparts.
With real-world examples, this practical guide offers SMBs advice and easy tips for training employees, as well as outlining the essential solutions designed to help today’s businesses defend against and recover from a cyber security incident.
