When it comes to cybersecurity, small and midsize businesses (SMBs) have gotten a bad rap. Every once in a while I will see media coverage of something like this CNBC survey, which claimed to find that more than 60 percent of small business owners are not concerned about the risk of a cyber attack, and it makes my head spin. To put it bluntly, I don’t buy it. I work with SMBs every day and can tell you firsthand that the issues they are facing around cybersecurity are not related to ignorance or a failure to prioritize. It’s that cybersecurity is really hard as an SMB!
