It’s no secret that cyberattacks are on the rise. According to Statista.com, in 2022 there were 422.14 million individuals impacted, compared to the year prior, 2021 with 298.08 individuals. Your business is at risk, no matter how small it is. 

Running a small business without a cybersecurity plan in place can be disastrous. Good small business practice is acknowledging that what worked when you first opened your business may no longer be working for your company. Small businesses tend to operate on a more limited budget than larger companies where every dollar counts, and cutting corners may cost them more than they can afford to lose, especially when it comes to cybersecurity measures. 

IT is a must-have when running a business, especially for those who deal with sensitive or private information and money. It is hard to gain a customer's trust back when their information was leaked, and as we all know, bad news travels fast. 

Rolling into 2023, managed IT services will remain a vital and prominent role in the success of every business. Managed IT providers offer a broad range of services, from cybersecurity to network management and support.
