Cyber and technology specialists, Emerge Digital and Red Maple Technologies, have forged a strategic partnership to bring enterprise-level cybersecurity solutions to SMEs at a time when small businesses struggle with the cost and resource of staying secure.
This year’s Government Cybersecurity Breaches Survey reported how an increasing number of small- to medium-sized companies are struggling with their cyber hygiene since the pandemic. The number of micro businesses using up-to-date malware protection has dropped from 81% to 74% in two years, while there are now fewer medium-sized firms with security controls on devices compared to last year. In a separate report, 38% admitted to having insufficient budget to adequately protect themselves against cyberattacks.
As a managed service provider, Emerge Digital will now incorporate Red Maple’s world-leading attack surface management solution, FractalScan Surface, into its recently launched, OnyxSecure product suite, designed to bring enhanced enterprise-level cybersecurity to small businesses at more affordable prices.
