Think cyberattacks only threaten giant 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. This includes downtime, lost customers, legal fees, ransom payments, and severe damage to your reputation.
Alarming, isn't it?
But here’s the silver lining: a revolutionary tool is empowering businesses like yours to detect and stop cyberattacks before they cause harm, transforming cybersecurity as we know it.
Introducing a Smarter Defense
This breakthrough is called endpoint detection and response (EDR). You don’t need to memorize the term—just understand its power.
Imagine a vigilant digital security guard that never sleeps.
Unlike traditional antivirus that blocks known threats, EDR continuously monitors every action on your computers—every login, file change, and unusual activity. When it detects suspicious behavior, such as ransomware spreading or logins from unexpected locations, it intervenes immediately to neutralize the threat.
Why EDR Is Essential Today
Cybercriminals have evolved. They no longer rely on simple hacks. Instead, they use stolen credentials, disguise malware as ordinary files, and exploit a single employee mistake to infiltrate your systems.
EDR stops these advanced threats in their tracks—protecting your business from catastrophic damage.
Not Just Smart—Increasingly Mandatory
Many business owners don’t realize that cyber insurance providers are now requiring tools like EDR. Without it, your insurance might deny coverage after a breach—like trying to claim fire damage without a smoke detector.
