Phishing involves fraudulent emails, messages, or websites designed to trick employees into revealing sensitive information, such as login credentials or financial details.
Lack of Security Awareness
Insufficient employee training on cybersecurity best practices can lead to unintentional data breaches and compromises.
Ransomware
Ransomware is malicious software that encrypts a business’s data until a ransom is paid. If the ransom is not paid, the data remains inaccessible.

Malware Infections
Malware includes various types of malicious software, such as viruses, worms, and trojans, that can infiltrate systems, steal data, or disrupt operations.
Misconfigured Cloud Services
Improperly configured cloud platforms can lead to data exposure and unauthorized access to sensitive information.
Weak Passwords
Inadequate password practices make it easier for attackers to gain unauthorized access to systems, accounts, and sensitive information.
Mobile Device Threats
Mobile devices can be susceptible to malware, data leakage, and unauthorized access if not properly secured.
Unpatched Software
Failing to apply security patches and updates to software and systems leaves vulnerabilities open for exploitation by cybercriminals.
Lack of Incident Response Plan
Without a well-defined plan, small businesses may struggle to effectively respond to and mitigate the impact of a cybersecurity incident.
