A Firm In Las Vegas Warned Cybersecurity Isn’t Only Important To Big Businesses

Vegas Inc will help protect small businesses with affordable cybersecurity solutions

Vegas Inc is a cybersecurity based company that focuses on providing efficient, automated and intelligent cybersecurity solutions to small businesses.

The company believes that cyber threats aren’t just threatning to big businesses only. Small businesses are equally targeted when it comes to cyber attacks.

In a report issued by the company, they found out that 71% of all cyber attacks target small businesses with nearly 60% success rate of an attack. No one is protecting small businesses because everyone is focusing on protecting governments and big businesses.

The company aims to bring awareness to the doors of small businesses.
