Attackers Target Opportunity, Not Just Size

Cybercriminals don’t only focus on large enterprises. Small and mid-sized organizations are often attacked because they usually have fewer defenses and slower response capabilities.

Automated Attacks Don’t Discriminate

Credential stuffing, ransomware campaigns, phishing kits, and internet-wide vulnerability scans operate at scale automatically. Exposure alone can make you a target.

Smaller Teams Often Have Larger Visibility Gaps

Limited staffing, fragmented tooling, and delayed patching create environments where attackers can persist longer without detection.
