Small Business Cyber Security: The 4 Things You Actually Need
business cyber security small business
Most Adelaide small businesses we attend after a cyber incident were missing the same four basics. Get these right and you avoid 90% of common attacks.
1. Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) everywhere
Email, accounting, cloud storage, remote desktop. Password-only logins in 2025 are negligent.
2. Off-site, immutable backups
A backup on the same network as your server is not a backup. Ransomware encrypts both.
3. Application Control
Block unknown programs from running. This single setting stops most malware dead.
4. Continuous Patching
Old Windows, old browsers, old plugins. We automate updates so you never have to think about them.
