Recent data underscores the growing cybersecurity threat facing small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs):

– 43% of all cyberattacks target small businesses, yet fewer than 14% feel prepared to defend against them. (Source: SBA.gov)

– SMBs experienced a 28% increase in cyberattacks since 2022, driven largely by ransomware and phishing campaigns. (Source: Forbes, 2025)

– The average cost of a small-business cyberattack is now approximately $255,000 per incident, according to Cybersecurity Dive.
