Think cyberattacks only target large corporations? Think again. Small businesses are now the primary targets for cybercriminals because they're easier to breach and more likely to pay ransoms.
Unlike Fortune 500 companies that can absorb breach costs, most small businesses face devastating financial consequences.
IBM's Cost Of A Data Breach Report 2024 reveals the average data breach costs a staggering $4.88 million, factoring in downtime, lost customers, legal expenses, ransom payments, and reputational damage.
Frightening, isn't it?
Fortunately, an innovative solution is empowering businesses like yours to detect cyber threats before they cause harm—transforming cybersecurity as we know it.
The Future of Cybersecurity: Endpoint Detection and Response
This advanced technology, known as endpoint detection and response (EDR), acts as a vigilant digital guard protecting your systems around the clock.
Unlike traditional antivirus software that only blocks known threats, EDR continuously monitors every action on your devices—every login, file modification, and unusual activity. When it detects suspicious behavior, such as ransomware propagation or unauthorized access from unfamiliar locations, EDR immediately intervenes to neutralize the threat.
Why EDR Is Essential in Today's Cyber Landscape
Cybercriminals have evolved beyond simple hacks. They exploit stolen credentials, disguise malware as everyday files, and capitalize on a single employee error to infiltrate systems.
EDR halts these sophisticated attacks in their tracks, safeguarding your business from catastrophic damage.
More Than Just Smart Protection—It's Becoming Mandatory
Many business owners aren't aware that cyber insurance providers increasingly require EDR solutions. Without it, your insurance may not cover breach-related losses—like filing a fire claim without a smoke detector.
