Are small to mid-sized businesses vulnerable to cyber attacks?

Too many local Boston businesses believe their operation is too small to be affected by cyber criminals – until they’re victimized. In reality, hackers target small to mid-sized businesses under the assumption that their security is easier to penetrate and resources to pursue the offenders are limited. For example, just last year, the nearby Leominster School District become a victim of ransomware and was forced to shell out $10,000 to assailants to get their sensitive data back. The damage caused by this situation could have been avoided if proper preemptive measures had been taken.
