Data Breaches Are A Threat To Every Website Owner
Most of us have heard about the big data breaches in recent years that have affected many of the high street names that you may be well aware of…hopefully not many of you were affected? It’s not just the big corporations that are affected by data breaches, hence this blog! It’s often the smaller firms that get hit, affecting the confidentiality, integrity, and function of the compromised data.
A data breach can be detrimental to a small business, so it’s absolutely essential that your cyber security software is fully functional and updated at all times.
