Strengthening Cybersecurity on a Budget

Strengthening Cybersecurity on a Budget

The Problem:
How do you protect your business when cybersecurity sounds expensive and confusing? Many small-business owners assume they’re too small to be targeted. They’re wrong. Hackers go for the easiest lock to pick — not the biggest building.

The Insight:
Most breaches happen because of people, not technology. Weak passwords, fake links, lost devices. You don’t need a big IT department — you need big discipline.

An Example:
A construction firm I coached got hit with a $15K ransomware scam through an intern’s email. After recovery, we rolled out simple guardrails: multi-factor authentication, password managers, and a “verify before click” rule. Zero incidents since.

The Solution:
Focus on behavior first, software second. Train your team quarterly, back up your data weekly, and test your recovery plan once a year. The goal isn’t to be hack-proof — it’s to be breach-ready.
Nik’s Rule: Security is leadership — protecting what you’ve built before you’re forced to rebuild it.

My Invitation to You:
If your security strategy starts and ends with hope, let’s create a practical defense plan that actually fits your business.
