Peace of Mind (June Newsletter)
/Well, dear readers, I remain on my soap box regarding Cyber Security: it is an existential threat to every business, big or small – especially if you are selling direct to consumer! Yes, I know that you are:
a. Too busy
b. Too overwhelmed by the topic to “look” into this
c. Too small to attract the attention of a cyber thief
d. Too lucky to have anything happen to you
Maybe you are just in denial! SDSI is a business development organization. We feel that cyber security is the biggest risk to our collective businesses, and that no excuse to avoid mitigating the risk is good enough. The time for action is now.
a. 68% of small businesses have no disaster program
b. 56% have no cyber security measures
c. 60% of cyber attacks result in a failed business.
Add in the fact that most SDSI members have had a substantial increase in D to C transactions, with cyber risk rising in direct proportion to the increase….
