Cybersecurity isn't just digital. A password on a sticky note or a client file left on a desk overnight is a major vulnerability. 📝 Implement a "Clean Desk Policy" to ensure sensitive data is locked away before your team heads home. #SmallBusiness #DataSafety

2) Document: Log what happened and when.

3) Notify: Contact IT and your insurance provider.

Your cybersecurity is only as strong as your weakest vendor. Third-party breaches are a major threat to small businesses. Protect your data: limit vendor network permissions, audit their security, and revoke access the moment a project ends.

Modern phishing emails don't look like obvious scams anymore. They look like urgent vendor invoices or a message from your boss. Train your team to pause, check the sender's full email address, and look for artificial urgency.

Paying ransomware doesn’t guarantee recovery — preparation gives you options.

If ransomware hit today, would your business know what to do first?
Every small business should define:

○ Who to notify
○ Which systems to isolate
○ How to preserve data
○ When to involve outside support

A basic plan reduces chaos and speeds recovery.

This Valentine’s Day, don’t fall for cyber “love scams.”

Red flags to watch for:
○ Requests for money or gift cards
○ Pressure to move conversations off-platform
○ Stories that don’t quite add up
Trust your instincts — not just emotions.
