Don't assume only large corporations face devastating cyberattacks. In reality, small businesses have become the prime targets for cybercriminals due to their typically weaker defenses and higher likelihood to pay ransoms.
While Fortune 500 companies might absorb breach costs, most small businesses simply can't afford the financial hit.
IBM's Cost Of A Data Breach Report 2024 reveals that the average data breach costs a staggering $4.88 million, factoring in downtime, lost customers, legal expenses, ransom demands, and damage to your brand reputation.
Intimidating, isn't it?
But there's hope: a revolutionary solution is empowering businesses like yours to detect cyber threats before they cause harm—transforming cybersecurity as we know it.
Introducing a Smarter Cyber Defense
This breakthrough technology 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 constantly monitoring your systems.
Unlike traditional antivirus that blocks only known threats, EDR continuously monitors every action on your devices—every login, file modification, and unusual activity. When suspicious behavior arises, such as ransomware spreading or logins from unexpected locations, EDR immediately intervenes to neutralize the threat.
Why EDR Is Essential Today
Cybercriminals have evolved beyond old tactics. They use stolen credentials, mask malware as routine files, and exploit a single employee mistake to infiltrate your network.
EDR halts these advanced threats in their tracks—protecting your business from crippling attacks.
Beyond Smart: Increasingly Mandatory
Many business owners don’t realize that cyber insurance providers now often require EDR as a condition for coverage. Without it, your insurance may not pay out after a breach—like filing a fire claim without a smoke detector.
