The kind of endpoint management that was previously only available to massive corporates with large budgets is now within reach of all businesses. BUI’s Richard Ryan explains how it applies to you…

The security landscape is getting more treacherous by the day. Threats are growing exponentially. Last year a company fell victim to a cyberattack every 39 seconds; and cybercrime is expected to cost the global economy $10.5 trillion annually by 2025.

These attacks are not limited to larger firms. In fact, a recent report showed that “small businesses are three times more likely to be targeted by cybercriminals than larger companies.” The survey found that one in five organisations had at least one user account compromised in 2021. “This highlights how many organisations can be vulnerable without the right set of protection tools. Once an intruder is inside, it can be especially difficult to detect until it’s too late and they have already acted,” it added.

Here I should add that smaller firms don’t necessarily face smaller risks. A company in the finance sector with only 100 users could be at serious risk. In fact, one data breach could sink them.

A massive game-changer…
