Small firms warned over cyber crime
Small and medium sized businesses are not equipped to deal with the level of cyber crime in the UK, according to an industry round table.
With blind faith in technology encouraging victims to fall foul to cyber crime, a change in social culture is fundamentally needed.
Small firms need to constantly refresh their knowledge and stay on top of technology to combat the external threats from professional organisations as well as those from rogue employees.
"Employees taking information from an employer is probably the most damaging thing an individual can do. A database or a client base is often the most valuable information a company has," said Daniel Fenwick, technical director of Zentek Forensics.
