Answer:
Yes—absolutely, but it requires the right approach and commitment. Small businesses don’t need huge budgets to make a big impact. Even basic cybersecurity measures can significantly reduce risk:
- Multi-factor authentication (MFA) can stop up to 90% of login-based attacks
- Antivirus software and firewalls can reduce exposure to malware by around 85%
- Regular staff training can reduce the risk of human error by up to 70%
- SMBs that allocate just 10% of their IT budgets to cybersecurity see around 60% fewer incidents
