Cybersecurity Readiness

Data breaches in large corporations and businesses make news headlines every week. It may surprise you to learn that small businesses and non-profits, like independent schools, are increasingly becoming attractive targets for cybercriminals. “Increasingly, we see more small- and mid-size businesses impacted who often tend to underestimate their exposure. They all need to continuously invest in strengthening their cyber controls,” as noted in the 2023 Allianz Risk Barometer.

In 2021, 82% of attacks impacted organizations with fewer than 1000 employees.2021 Cyber Attacks by Company Size
