Cybersecurity Best Practices and How to Protect Your Small Business in COVID-19

Just because a business is small, most business owners think that their business is not a target for cyber attacks. Small businesses, with less security protection and less resources focused on cybersecurity are an easier target for hackers.

Many small business owners share the mindset that they don’t have much to steal when in reality, that is completely false — 43 percent of cyber-attacks target small businesses. Best practices for cybersecurity should be a priority no matter the size of the business.
