Send us a text The digital landscape has transformed dramatically, and with it the threats facing your business. In this eye-opening conversation with IT security veteran Ryan Kincer, we uncover the harsh reality that small businesses aren't just vulnerable to cyber attacks—they're the primary targets. Ryan pulls back the curtain on the modern cybercriminal: no longer limited to physical break-ins, today's digital thieves operate remotely in their sweatpants, purchasing criminal software from the dark web to cast wide nets for vulnerable businesses. The statistics are sobering—over 60% of cyber attacks target small businesses, and of those attacked, more than 60% close their doors within a year. We explore practical, budget-conscious security measures every business should implement, from multi-factor authentication to regular software updates and comprehensive staff training. Ryan shares a particularly chilling story about a local business crippled by ransomware for weeks, losing hundreds of thousands of dollars despite having cybersecurity insurance. The conversation takes an intriguing turn when we discuss artificial intelligence—both as a productivity booster for legitimate businesses and as a powerful new weapon for cybercriminals. Ryan offers crucial guidance on using AI safely in your business while protecting intellectual property through proper "siloing" of information. Perhaps most valuable is our dissection of emerging threats like "fake receipt" scams that bypass traditional security red flags by containing no suspicious links or attachments—instead manipulating victims into calling fake customer service numbers where their financial information is harvested. Whether you're a tech novice or savvy business leader, this episode delivers essential knowledge to protect your company's future. Listen now to arm yourself against the invisible threats that could determine whether your business thrives or becomes another cybercrime statistic. Support the show…
