In tandem with this is the fact that a mere 13% of poll respondents said that they were comfortable enough with their level of knowledge to be able to even formulate a plan that would protect their business. When you put those two pieces of information together, along with the fact that, on average, a cyber attack on a small to medium sized business will cost companies about $100,000, it’s easy to see why the data is so disturbing.
The reality is that most of the businesses in operation on the planet today are small to medium-sized. The realization that most of these are terrified of being hit, many of them have already been hit, and few are taking steps to do anything about it is a recipe for long-term disaster.
