Ransomware Protection for Small Businesses: Your Size Is the Attacker’s Advantage

Small businesses represent the majority of ransomware victims because attackers perceive them as having limited security resources and detection capabilities. The article discusses why small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) are attractive targets and outlines protective strategies involving managed service providers (MSPs) and managed security service providers (MSSPs).

Why it matters: SMB owners and their IT teams need to recognize that their size makes them high-priority targets; proactive ransomware defense through MSP or MSSP partnerships can reduce breach risk.
