Some small business owners believe they're safe from cyber attacks because of their size. Yet, 50% of attacks occur against small businesses since attackers aren't always after just revenue. How can online business owners mitigate these threats and recover their companies?

After multiple failed business ventures, content creator and online entrepreneur Kaila Uli was confident her next company would prosper. However, an unexpected cyber attack from a competitor caused her to lose everything. The attackers flooded her site with bots, overwhelming the servers and kicking her offline. Kaila recommends investing in services like Cloudflare, which can limit excessive traffic directed at a network or server during an attack and ensure your business remains online. You can also purchase cyber insurance to secure personal information and pixel data.
