Myth: Hackers ignore businesses like yours

Myth: Small businesses aren’t worth hackers’ time

Key Takeaways:
SMBs saw almost double the weekly cyber incidents in H1 2025 vs. H1 2024
Credential abuse (like stolen passwords) involved in over 80% of breaches
Cloud environments like Microsoft 365 & Google Workspace are key attack targets

Many leaders in SMBs assume they’re too small to be a target. That’s no longer true. A recent Guardz Threat Report shows weekly cyber incidents among SMBs have nearly doubled in the first half of 2025 compared to the same time last year ([guardz.com](https://guardz.com/blog/small-business-cyberattacks-rise-in-2025-guardz-mid-year-findings/?utm_source=openai)). Credential attacks are now involved in over 80% of breaches, and cloud platforms like Outlook, Exchange & Google Workspace are being hit hard ([metroatlantaceo.com](https://metroatlantaceo.com/news/2025/09/small-business-cyberattack-surge-attacks-nearly-double-2025-guardz-reports/?utm_source=openai)).

You need more than basic awareness. You need proactive defenses. Identity protection. Cloud security controls. A partnership that delivers ongoing monitoring and response—not just checkboxes.

Let’s make sure your security setup is actually airtight.
