Think cyberattacks only target huge corporations? Think again. Small businesses are now the prime targets for cybercriminals because they often have weaker defenses and are more likely to pay ransoms.
Unlike Fortune 500 companies that can absorb breach costs, most small businesses face devastating financial impacts.
IBM's Cost Of A Data Breach Report 2024 reveals the average data breach costs a staggering $4.88 million, factoring in downtime, lost clients, legal expenses, ransom payments, and reputational damage.
Intimidating, right?
But there’s hope: a revolutionary tool is empowering businesses like yours to detect cyberattacks early and prevent damage, transforming cybersecurity.
Introducing Smarter Cyber Defense
This innovation is called endpoint detection and response (EDR). The name might be technical, but what it does is simple and powerful.
Imagine a vigilant digital security guard, monitoring your systems 24/7.
Unlike traditional antivirus that only blocks known threats, EDR continuously monitors every action on your devices — logins, file changes, unusual behaviors. When it detects suspicious activity, like ransomware spreading or logins from strange locations, it immediately intervenes to stop the threat.
Why EDR is Essential Today More Than Ever
Cybercriminals have evolved. They no longer rely on simple hacks; they exploit stolen credentials, disguise malware as everyday files, and wait for one employee mistake to infiltrate your business.
EDR neutralizes these advanced threats before they can cripple your company.
Not Just Smart — Often Mandatory
Many business owners don’t realize that cyber insurance providers are increasingly requiring EDR. Without it, your coverage might be void, similar to filing a fire claim without a smoke detector.
