The technology world is always developing, which is terrific for advancements that propel productivity for businesses, but frightening for IT teams who must keep up with new network security issues that come with new tech. Sure, your business might not be the next target to an international breaching scandal, but there is still information that your company possesses that puts yourself, and your customers at risk should it ever be stolen.
To put this conversation into perspective, let’s consider how common network security issues occur:
- Slightly less than half of the cyber attacks are aimed at small businesses
- More than half of all small companies that experience a cyber attack go out of business within six months
- Breaches involving theft of assets average a cost of $879,582 for small businesses
These statistics should make every small business owner take a hard look at the disaster recovery plan in place for their company.
But Wait, There’s More
Only six percent of the business report that they have never experienced downtime. The other 94% have reported that their network has failed and gone down at some point or another.
Downtime can cost your business more than you can afford, and security breaches targeted during downtime could lead to your business’ demise.
