The Dangers of Being Careless with IT Security

According to the FBI’s Internet Crime Report, the cost of cybercrimes in 2018 reached $2.7 billion. While larger enterprises typically have more data to steal, small businesses have less secure networks, making it easier to breach the network. 

Small businesses typically lack the security infrastructure of larger businesses and as a result are considered careless with IT security and an easy target of cyber data theft. Many businesses can’t afford a professional IT staff to manage cyber security and they have fewer resources to devote to keeping up with the latest cyber threats. Other reasons include not being aware of the risk, lack of employee training, not updating security programs and failure to secure endpoints.
