What is the minimum IT security recommended for small businesses/new businesses?


I always cringe when I am asked this question. The truth is, if you are only doing the minimum, you are not doing enough. Your best bet is to hire a qualified IT provider or consultant, and follow their recommendations. Though budgets may be tight in smaller businesses, a single security breach can be the end of a company. It is in your best interest to secure your systems as much as possible for your situation. When we are meeting with potential new clients, we are interviewing them and their business as much as they are interviewing us. If we get the feeling that price is the only thing that a customer is interested in, we will likely turn them away because we won’t have the funds to properly secure their location.
