DON’T UNDERESTIMATE THE THREAT

BUSINESSES ARE AT DAILY RISK

Cyber crime is forecast to grow to $2 trillion by 2019

Vulnerabilities found in three quarters of websites

Tony Neate, Chief Executive of Get Safe Online, comments:

“The fact that the UK is losing nearly £11 billion to cyber criminals is frightening and highlights the need for each and every one of us to make sure we are taking our online safety

seriously. It is clear from our survey that people are very concerned, and rightly so.”

A report by PWC (2015) found that 90% of the UK’s large businesses, and 74% of

SMEs, had suffered a computer security breach in the last year. And with the cost of

downtime reaching £138,000 per hour,the threat is real.

While threats to information security are at unprecedented levels, our elite cyber intelligence officers at Secarma have been securing our clients from the latest threats for over 15 years. We conduct frontier research and utilise a proven methodology to eliminate vulnerabilities

before they are exploited.
