Cybersecurity Mistakes to Avoid: How to Protect Your Small Business from Costly Threats Most businesses aren't hacked by elite cybercriminals working in secret government labs. They're breached by avoidable mistakes-a missed update, a weak password, a careless click on a phishing link. And while the headlines focus on billion-dollar companies, small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) are the real targets. In Cybersecurity Mistakes to Avoid, Eric LeBouthillier exposes the 15 most dangerous security errors threatening SMBs today-and shows you exactly how to fix them before they cost you everything. This isn't theory. It's battle-tested insight from real-world incidents-written in plain English, stripped of jargon, and designed for business owners, startup founders, IT leads, and anyone responsible for protecting digital assets on a budget.¿ Inside you'll discover:Why "too small to be a target" is a deadly myth-and why SMBs are prime targets for ransomware, phishing, and credential stuffing. The password problem most teams ignore-and how to fix it with password managers, unique logins, and multi-factor authentication. Phishing traps that still work in 2025-how modern attackers trick even savvy employees, and how to train your team to spot the bait. The risks of remote work and BYOD-and the practical steps to secure home offices, VPNs, and personal devices without killing productivity. The hidden cost of skipping updates and patches-and how automated patching can close doors attackers exploit daily. Cloud and AI security blind spots-why your provider doesn't secure everything, and how careless AI usage can leak sensitive data. Backup and recovery mistakes-why untested backups fail when you need them most, and the 3-2-1 rule every SMB must know. Compliance and incident response-how to get ahead of SOC 2, GDPR, HIPAA, and why having a tested response plan can save your company. ¿ Real-World Case Studies Every chapter includes real-world breaches from small firms-architecture firms paying $28,000 in ransom, marketing agencies losing $40,000 to reused passwords, startups exposing customer data in cloud misconfigurations, and more. You'll see what went wrong, what it cost, and how it could have been avoided with simple, affordable measures.¿ Who This Book Is ForSmall business owners & solopreneurs who need practical protection without hiring a full-time security team.
