Small business, big security

Cyberattacks are a genuine concern for small businesses. Not having the right protection can cost your business time and money, and result in the loss of sensitive information. Let us help you protect your business and customer information so that you can focus on your business with confidence and peace of mind.

The types of cyberthreats facing small businesses are diverse and so cybersecurity must be equally wide-ranging – with next-gen endpoint protection tools alongside small business antivirus, patch management, VPN and USB protection features.

Alongside software, policies, and practices should be reviewed. This includes training employees to spot social engineering-based attacks, such as phishing. These elements combined will create a truly holistic security setup for your small business.

Why do Small and Medium Businesses need antivirus?

Data breach protection
A data breach is often malware-related, making effective antivirus software essential for helping keep your business and client data more secure. This is done by identifying suspicious files and helping prevent common threats, including ransomware, from impacting network, server, and endpoints.
Automation and endpoint security
Small business networks have multiple devices connecting to them, in the office and remotely. Keeping all those devices protected can be difficult to manage individually, but with next-generation endpoint protection, every endpoint can be monitored and get protection centrally. Patch management will then help you automatically fix vulnerabilities in your software and keep security up-to-date.
Online management platform
Managing multiple devices and adding or removing new users more securely has never been simpler. The security of business devices in your network, old and new, can be managed from one screen, wherever you are.

FAQs

Robust, holistic cybersecurity is essential for protecting your small business from the vast range of cyberthreats that could result in malware and data breaches – including adware, spyware, botnets and zero-day attacks.

Cybercriminals will target areas of the business network most likely to be weak as they seek to identify an entry point. This means that every device that connects to the business network should have cybersecurity software installed, alongside small business server antivirus for protecting the wider network. Users should also be trained to apply best practices and avoid phishing attacks to minimize breaches caused by human error.

Yes, all businesses need cybersecurity, including small businesses. Since many small businesses tend to have less resources to develop robust protection against complex cyberthreats, they unfortunately become frequent targets of cybercriminals. At Avast, we deliver solutions that help protect your small businesses from cyberthreats so that you don’t have to worry about losing what you’ve worked so hard to build.

Any company that operates online in any capacity, whether primarily or partially, needs cybersecurity. Although industries such as healthcare, finance, and government tend to require stronger cybersecurity due to the highly sensitive information being handled, the reality is that every business should have some form of cybersecurity in place.

In the past, having onsite security for offices might have been enough, but now that most businesses are operating online, protection against cyberthreats is an essential part of business continuity planning.

Small business servers should be considered a common target for cyberattacks due to unpatched vulnerabilities in server applications, operating systems and malware on email servers.

Protect your business’ Windows servers and endpoints with reliable, next-gen defense.

All of our solutions include our next-generation antivirus for businesses designed to prevent, search for, detect, and remove malware and other malicious software (worms, trojans, adware, spyware, and more). We help protect  businesses worldwide  using our prevention, detection, blocking capabilities, machine learning, advanced heuristics, advanced anti-exploit, and other Avast proprietary techniques.

To help protect users, Avast detects and immediately reports suspicious files or behavior.
