From Risk to Resilience: How SMBs Can Outsmart Today’s Cyber Threats
Small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) face a rising tide of cyber threats that can feel overwhelming. Once perceived as low-risk targets, SMBs now face threats on par with larger enterprises. Yet, limited resources and less mature cybersecurity measures can make them even more vulnerable.
In fact, nearly 43% of cyberattacks now target SMBs, and the average cost of a breach for a small business is between a couple hundred thousand to millions of dollars. But there’s good news: with the right tools, SMBs can turn the tables on cybercriminals.
Cisco’s advanced security solutions, combined with iTBlueprint’s Managed Security Services, offer the protection SMBs need to transform from being “at risk” to resilient.
Navigating the Cyber Threat Landscape
Today’s cyber landscape is filled with threats that can cripple businesses. Ransomware, for instance, can lock businesses out of their own systems until a ransom is paid, a cost that many SMBs simply cannot afford. Phishing attacks, on the other hand, often exploit human error, tricking employees into revealing sensitive information or downloading malicious software. These threats are pervasive and growing. The alarming reality is that many SMBs, despite having sensitive data, often lack the resources to handle advanced cyber threats on their own.
Head-off Cyber Threats
Cisco’s security suite provides an array of tools specifically designed to help SMBs tackle cyber threats with confidence and agility. Here’s how:
Aroud-the-Clock Monitoring and Instant Threat Detection
With Cisco’s real-time monitoring, threats get spotted and stopped in their tracks. And with iTBlueprint managing these tools, you get 24/7 coverage. The result? Faster response times, minimized damage, and a security team that never sleeps.
Zero Trust, Total Control
Cisco’s Zero Trust framework doesn’t take any chances. By requiring verification for everyone—inside or outside your network—it limits access to only trusted users and devices. This is your essential safeguard against cyber threats from all angles.
Safe Connections, Anywhere
For businesses with employees on the go, Cisco Umbrella delivers secure internet access from anywhere. It protects users from malicious sites and risky content, ensuring your data stays safe even when your team is miles from the office.
All-in-One Security
Cisco XDR makes security management a breeze. By consolidating security events from across the network into a single, easy-to-use interface, it simplifies monitoring, investigation, and response. SMBs can now manage threats more efficiently, with faster response times and fewer headaches.
