There are a few common misconceptions that prevent small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) from pursuing a strong security posture. It is important for both the businesses and the security industry to understand the reality of the situation. Megan Roddie, security analyst with Recon InfoSec, explains how to avoid the most common mistakes of SMB security.
Regularly measuring the effectiveness of cybersecurity efforts is challenging but essential to avoid security incidents. The ROI of security investments should be based on how much loss the organization could avoid due to the investment.
