As I got older, I realized:

1 lost money can be found; lost time is lost forever

2 learning to learn, and changing yourself is a superpower

3 you are not your job

4 networking is about giving

5 best teacher is your last mistake

6 good manners as important as good education

@uzarwanda @rwandacybersec @RISARWANDA @CyberSecurityAc @cyberlabsbgu @CyberSec__News @6DegreesCyber @IBMuhizi @MusoniPaula @RwandaICT @Muhirela @RICTAInfo Criminals know that SMEs have limited budgets to invest in operations and other activities. Therefore, few of the SMEs will only pay attention to cybersecurity concerns.Type of business of the SME is also the influence. Even some companies which are not SMEs are still struggling!

@uzarwanda @rwandacybersec @RISARWANDA @CyberSecurityAc @cyberlabsbgu @CyberSec__News @6DegreesCyber @IBMuhizi @MusoniPaula @RwandaICT @Muhirela @RICTAInfo There are a lot of articles written around the same concerns you have for the SMEs, here are some of them: Do SMEs Care About Cyber Security?(https://t.co/Dq4UOWMstZ); https://t.co/G9x1S7Bo3j; https://t.co/DBrV98KoBE.

@uzarwanda @rwandacybersec @RISARWANDA @CyberSecurityAc @cyberlabsbgu @CyberSec__News @6DegreesCyber @IBMuhizi @MusoniPaula @RwandaICT @Muhirela @RICTAInfo I do recommend that SMEs take some precautions to counteract the malicious activities of the criminals:
1)They should depend on the use of the existing secure free services
2)They can use the free trusted service of the cloud as their backup strategies
3)No faked software in use

@uzarwanda @rwandacybersec @RISARWANDA @CyberSecurityAc @cyberlabsbgu @CyberSec__News @6DegreesCyber @IBMuhizi @MusoniPaula @RwandaICT @Muhirela @RICTAInfo 4)I do not recommend the use of free antiviruses as they only offer min-protection.
5)I recommend partnering with others under the signed agreement to ensure they increase their security maturity level.
6)I recommend SMEs having a continuous small reserved cybersecurity budget
