At NEBRC, we recognise the importance of educating small businesses on the threats to cyber security in the modern world of technology. Technology offers businesses an array of benefits relating to organisation, efficiency and effectiveness, as well as helping a lot of SMEs with communication management, storing files and accessing finance. 

However, with this reliance comes many associated risks including cyber attacks and data privacy. In fact, recent statistics from the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) reveal that 32% of businesses and 24% of charities have experienced cyber security related breaches in the last 12 months. 

Our Free Core Membership is designed to provide you with relevant resources and ongoing support to improve your resilience to cyber security threats. 

 

















We have recently launched a new, eight step infographic for our Core Members so that they can gain a better insight into what their membership holds, and what to expect from joining us. Our aim is to help businesses better understand the issues and implement some necessary steps for ongoing business resilience.

We know that cyber resilience can be a daunting subject to tackle, but we also know that it’s a subject no business can afford to ignore. See below eight core steps that businesses can go through with us over the course of a twelve month membership journey, in order to help ensure more improved online security.

For example, a small business from the property sector joined us in 2021 and began receiving the monthly newsletter from us, they then realised they needed more support around cyber security matters so had a call with us to go over their concerns and find out more about the services that we offer. They decided from this call to undertake a vulnerability assessment from us, and were really pleased with the results of this.

One year later they came back to us for a follow up vulnerability assessment to see if anything had changed, this case study details the ongoing partnership of our Core Membership and how it can be tailored to you and your business needs.
