Security News > 2020 > February > One in five SMBs use no endpoint security at all
An alarming number of SMBs in the US and UK are not prepared for a potential cyber attack or breach, BullGuard warns.
One-third of companies with 50 or fewer employees report using free, consumer-grade cybersecurity, and one in five companies use no endpoint security whatsoever.
Worrisome, the BullGuard study found 43% of SMB owners have no cybersecurity defense plan in place at all - leaving their most sensitive financial, customer and business data, and ultimately their companies, at significant risk.
One in five SMB owners surveyed stated their organization has zero vulnerabilities, however 50% of SMB owners stated their employees do not receive any cybersecurity training.
The right solution makes it simple and extremely cost-effective for SMBs to manage their own cybersecurity, ensuring their business is secure and protected.
