英国网络安全专家敦促十大网博靠谱平台的小企业利用其最新的在线服务,因为今天(周二)发布的数据显示,近一半的小企业在2022年遭受了在线攻击. 

英国政府通信总部下属的国家网络安全中心敦促小型企业采取行动。这些数据是作为政府2022年网络漏洞调查的一部分收集的,数据显示,十大网博靠谱平台44%的小型企业遭遇了网络事件. This compares to 39% for all of the UK.  

调查还发现,与英国其他地区的小企业相比,十大网博靠谱平台的小企业不太可能制定网络事件响应计划,也不太可能对员工进行网络安全培训.

Case study

“It’s something I see a lot of people in the business community talking about nowadays, and it’s something I really want people to consider.来自十大网博靠谱平台Loaf的Aiden Ryan自己也遭受过一次网络攻击,他讨论了提高城市中小企业网络安全意识的重要性.  

With my cake and coffee brand, Loaf Mcr, I am an active a part of Manchester’s thriving small business community. 在封锁期间,他的生意不断发展,从制作蛋糕为英国国家医疗服务体系筹集资金,到向塞尔福里奇百货公司和十大网博靠谱平台13家不同的咖啡馆供应他的蛋糕. 

在封锁期间,我开始注意到,越来越多的小企业主似乎成为了网络攻击的受害者. 十大网博靠谱平台的许多企业的社交媒体账户都遭到了黑客攻击,我发现小型企业社区正在团结起来,推广网络安全建议. 

在封锁期间,由于十大网博靠谱平台食品行业的一些多产账户分享了被黑客入侵的故事,人们似乎更加意识到网络安全的重要性. You'd often see Instagram Stories where you’d know the account had been compromised, or big social media accounts would share stories of businesses who’d been attacked, explaining they'd lost accounts and followers. That had a big impact. After that, 我知道很多企业开始使用2SV(两步验证),并考虑他们的网络安全. 

Before starting Loaf, my personal Twitter account was hacked and completely taken over, after a leak of log ins and email addresses was posted to a hacker sharing site. 黑客清除了我账户上的所有证据,并更改了我的密码和邮箱地址,这样我就无法再登录了. 

Years later when I set up my business, I took this incident into account and prioritised my cyber security from the get-go. 从一开始,我就在我所有的社交媒体账户上使用了两步验证,并设置了一个全新的电子邮件地址.   

That was a lesson learned. When I set up the brand, I took cyber security steps immediately. 当你与朋友和家人交谈时,这发生在你的个人账户上是一回事, 如果它是一个有14k存款和两到三年工作经历的商业账户,那就另当别说了. 

Often, people have paid money to grow those followings; they’ve spent on social media marketing tools, and agency advice. 所以,当事情发生时,他们失去了他们投资的钱以及未来的业务. 

It’s something I see a lot of people in the business community talking about nowadays, and it’s something I really wants people to consider. 

I think ever since I started using 2SV, I felt more confident. I don't feel scared it's going to happen to me but I do know that you can always do more. 

Loaf was built through community. It was an underdog story - people want to see good things happen. Which is why I feel so passionate about this too; I want to help others in the business community recognise that this matters. Businesses are built through community and they thrive through community.
