Smaller firms are no means immune to cyber attack.
In fact, there is growing evidence that criminal groups are targetting smaller businesses.

Lee Wrall is founder at Everything Tech, an IT services firm based in Manchester. He also believes passionately that smaller companies can be secure, withe the right planning and support. He spoke to Security Insights’ Stephen Pritchard.
