STUDY: Many Small Biz Owners Unsure of Rules Regarding Consumer Info

While more companies are providing cybersecurity awareness training for employees, less than 50 percent of SMBs in a recent survey have a plan for how to respond in case of a breach.

As previously reported by SocialTimes, small and medium-sized businesses don’t feel prepared when it comes to cybersecurity. One of the most concerning parts the earlier study by IT research firm Software Advice was that many businesses had no plan in place in the event of a breach. However, new research from the same firm indicates that more small businesses are getting more prepared.

Software Advice conducted an online survey of 180 owners and decision-makers at SMBs throughout the United States.
