CYBER SECURITY FOR SMALL BUSINESS

Securing and Empowering Businesses with Technology

Cyber fraud is a growing concern for small businesses as the pandemic forces them to digitize. Nearly a quarter of businesses have experienced cyberattacks since March 2020 with 5 per cent overall saying the attack against them was successful, finds the newest report by the Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB). Relative to the whole economy, this means that about 61,000 small and mid-sized businesses were victims of cyberfraud last year.

Are You at Risk?

Businesses most at risk of cyberfraud:

Those with 20 or more employees
Those new to the digital space
Those who allowed their employees to work remotely or made any changes to their online presence
Those in the manufacturing, wholesale trade, business services and enterprise and administration management sectors

It’s more important than ever for small businesses to protect their information systems.

Examples of Threats to Canadian Companies

Ransomware

The most common form of malware used for extortion against Canadian companies. While it has remained prevalent, cybercriminals have shifted their tactics to allow them to increase their ransom demands and increase the likelihood of success.

Stealing Intellectual Property

Threat actors conduct cyber espionage against the networks of organizations and allied nations, seeking intellectual property, trade secrets, and other commercially sensitive information.

Stealing Customer and Client Data

Databases containing personal information such as names, addresses, phone numbers, employment information, credentials, and financial detailsare valuable to cyber threat actors.

Exploiting Trusted Business Relationships

Often, cyber threat actors impersonate high-level executives or trusted third parties. Cyber threat actors have recently been using the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic to target victims.
