Cyber Security, A Growing Demand

So cyber security is a little more nuanced than a camera pointed at a computer…but you get the idea! We value protection and security above all else. In 2021, the world saw a surge of ransomware attacks that rose 105% above previous years. It’s time that all small businesses started caring as much about their online protection as they need to. . . . #becausesometimesyouneedaninja #bsynan #smallbusinesssupport #ransomware #cybersecurity #security #safewebsites #safesearch #smallbusinessprotection
