$8.44 trillion - it is a staggering amount of money, right? That is what companies across the globe lost to cyberattacks in 2022.

 

Here is another staggering number - $23.84 trillion, the expected global cost of cybercrime by 2027.

 

When we hear the term 'cyberattack,' we think these are the type of incidents that happen to big, multinational companies. But this is far from the truth. 

 

Small and medium-sized businesses may not grab newspaper headlines, but they also have to deal with security incidents.

 

According to the Hiscox Cyber Readiness report, 41% of small businesses in the US fell victim to cyberattacks in 2023, a 3% jump from 2022. 

 

To make matters worse, another report found that 83% of small and medium-sized businesses are not equipped to deal with the financial setbacks caused by cyberattacks.

 

As a business of any size, your takeaway from these numbers should be to invest in a security operations center.
