Frequently Asked Questions About Cybersecurity in Balham
Is cybersecurity really necessary for small businesses?
Absolutely. Small businesses are targeted precisely because they often lack security measures. The average cost of a cyber attack to a small business is significant, and many never recover. Basic security measures are affordable and essential.
Will security measures slow down our work?
Good security shouldn't be obstructive. We implement practical measures that protect without creating friction. Yes, logging in might take an extra few seconds with MFA, but the protection is worth it.
What's the most important thing we should do?
For most small businesses: enable multi-factor authentication on all accounts, use a proper password manager, keep software updated, and train staff to recognise phishing. We can help with all of these.
What if we get hacked?
Call us immediately. Fast response limits damage. We'll help contain the breach, assess what happened, recover systems, and improve defences to prevent recurrence.
