78% of SMBs indicated that having a privileged access management solution in place is important to a cybersecurity program - yet 76% of respondents said that they do not have one that is fully deployed, a Devolutions survey reveals.

SMBs are not immune, company size doesn't protect from cyberattacks.

"SMBs must not assume that their relative smaller size will protect them from cyberattacks. On the contrary, hackers, rogue employees and others are increasingly targeting SMBs because they typically have weaker - and, in some cases, virtually non-existent - defense systems."

To dig deeper into the mindset of SMBs about cybersecurity, Devolutions conducted a survey of 182 SMBs from a variety of industries - including IT, healthcare, education, and finance.

Protect from cyberattacks: The role of MSPs. One way for SMBs to close the cybersecurity gap is to seek out a trusted managed service provider for guidance and implementation of cybersecurity solutions, monitoring and training programs.
