Hacking news! 5 most devastating cyber attacks
Small companies are at the same risk of some of the top cyber threats as large organizations. A typical misconception for small companies is that their business is not big enough to be a target, however, this is not the case.
As hackers are now automating different types of cyber attacks, it is not so difficult for them to target hundreds or even thousands of small enterprises at a time. As usual, small companies have less awareness of attacks, weak technological defenses, and fewer resources as well as time to spend on cybersecurity. This makes them more vulnerable to a cyber attack than large organizations.
Also, small businesses are not less profitable targets. Even a small company can have so much money (bucks) or access to large amounts of personal data of customers that needs to be protected under regulations such as the GDPR. Such companies may also work with big organizations, and that’s why hackers can use them for targeting those organizations.
