Cyber security and data protection are national security issues impacting all U.S. businesses regardless of size. Nation-sponsored groups, as well as organized criminals are stealing from American businesses. It’s time to take this threat seriously and protect ourselves and our businesses. The ASBDC is here to help support small businesses in combatting the threats. This site provides access to the ASBDC Cybersecurity First Steps™ program as well as comprehensive cyber and data breach insurance offered through 360 Coverage Pros. Together, these programs can help small businesses to identify and protect critical data as well as help to detect, respond and recover from cyber and data breach events. Cybersecurity First Steps and SBDC advisors play an important role in ensuring that small business owners consider the value and necessity of implementing cyber and data protection into their business plans, policies and day-to-day business operations. If you need assistance with completing the First Steps questionnaire or would like to review the findings in the Cybersecurity First Steps report, please contact your local SBDC advisor.
