Did you know one small business in the UK is successfully hacked every 19 seconds? According to research, around 65,000 attempts to hack small-to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) occur in the UK every day, around 4,500 of which are successful. That equates to around 1.6 million of the 5.7 million SMBs in the UK per year. We work with businesses to educate, grow & strengthen their resilience to online crime and cyber attacks.
