Across the nation, employee phishing is running rampant. Ransomware brought an airport offline and an NBA team’s online store was leaking credit card information just last week alone. On a list of last week’s notable breaches, the average company size is only 11-50 employees.
Hackers are no longer focusing on enterprise-sized targets – they are focusing on small companies that don’t have the time and/or money to secure themselves properly.
It’s a dangerous assumption to believe an organization isn’t big enough to be a target of phishing, though. Cybersecurity affects all companies.
In fact, small businesses are actually a BETTER target, as they typically have smaller security budgets and less security framework in place (but still hold the same data from which a hacker can profit).
