Why does my construction business need cyber security? My business is too small to be a target.

Whilst cyber-attacks on larger businesses make the news, such attacks on SMEs can break the bank.

Despite having existing cyber security controls, engineering firm Weir Group were victim to a ransomware attack in 2021, with estimated losses of up to £5 million. The impact of such an attack would have been devastating to an SME.

With 12% of businesses in the South West operating in the construction industry, this could have a devastating effect on our local economy.

With concrete evidence showing that 21% of businesses that identified security breaches ended in losing money, data or other assets, and 81% of consumers opting for no involvement with companies that had suffered a data breach, the cost of a cyber-attack could be long-lasting.
