Keeping your business secure is more challenging than ever before. Security threats are continually evolving and becoming more sophisticated, and alongside this there’s the recent surge in home working.

Consider this, 82%* of SMEs have experienced a cyber attack that their AV systems didn’t catch, with ransomware attacks soaring by 195% in the UK ** in the first half of 2019 alone.

However, security threats are evolving and becoming more sophisticated to a degree that leaves current antivirus solutions struggling to keep up. With 82% of SMEs reporting they have experienced a cyberattack that their AV systems didn’t catch, it’s time to re-think your antivirus solution.

How are security threats evolving?

Security threats, namely through cyber and ransomware attacks, are constantly evolving – ransomware attacks soared by 195% in the UK in the first half of 2019 alone. Take a moment to consider that malware threats are evolving at a rapid pace with 350,000 new variations found each day or that viruses and ransomware are a significant criminal enterprise – 2017 witnessed a record of $2 billion in ransomware payments.
