Why Nearly Half of UK SMEs Are Getting Hit by Cyber Attacks:

And What You Should Do Now

Cyber threats aren’t just affecting big corporations anymore – recent stats show 42% of UK small businesses have suffered a cyber breach in the past year, and 67% of medium-sized ones are now experiencing attacks too.

That’s nearly half of the market. If you handle any data – client info, payments, emails – you’re squarely in the crosshairs.

The Problem

Cyber attacks are on the rise across the board, with phishing and ransomware leading the charge:

  • 85% of attacks start with phishing emails
  • Ransomware breaches have doubled in frequency
  • Average cost to recover per small business: £7,960

Why It Matters

These aren’t just IT issues – they threaten operations, compliance, reputation, and even legal standing. The NCSC and regulators are pushing for business-wide cyber resilience now
