Guarding against a Data Breach is the Smart Marketing Move
- September 27, 2019

Not only do they have to deal with the financial hit, but they also have to deal with the fallout. Six out of ten small businesses don’t survive longer than six months after a breach. Having the right security measures in place, like email scanning software and cybersecurity awareness programs is your best chance of defending your business.
