Cyber Security for Small Businesses

Greetings to all the Readers!

With the prevailing COVID-19 crisis, cybercrime has catapulted many folds. The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the priorities of chief information security officers (CISOs) of businesses and their teams.

The first one is protecting their work-from-home setting and workers on an unprecedented level and now businesses have told workers to stop travelling and organizing events in many places. They have suggested their staff members stay home. The other is retaining the integration, confidentiality, and availability of customer-facing network traffic as volumes spike as people are spending the most time at home.

This pandemic has also presented many structural as well as technical challenges that require an in-depth understanding and reassessing of the processes and tools in the cybersecurity arena. It is quite likely that some major changes could become permanent or continue to prevail in other forms in the post-COVID-19 time.
It is the right time for small businesses to think about their crisis management capabilities, create quick solutions to combat ongoing situation, and evaluate the implications in cybersecurity. This special issue will address the growing threat of cybercrime and the possible solutions that will help protect small business setup and their employees from such threats.

Also, you will find the regular articles of success stories, women in business, technology in small business, investment, HR, Tax, etc.

Hopefully, this edition will introduce you with better tools and tips to combat the cybercrime menace and help you thrive and sustain in this new normal of COVID-19!
