Cybercrime is rising at an alarming rate, with an increasing amount of SMBs falling victim to attack. The UK-government-backed Cyber Essentials certification is a cost-effective security framework that organisations should proactively adopt. It can effectively defend against 80% of cyberattacks and help businesses enhance their credibility.
