Cybersecurity protects business data, systems, and networks from cyberattacks. For small businesses, it’s crucial to prevent breaches that could disrupt operations or cause financial loss.
Hackers often see small businesses as easier targets due to weaker defenses. They pursue sensitive data (customer info, financial records) or ransom opportunities.

EDR tools monitor devices (laptops, servers, phones) for suspicious behavior, stopping attacks before they spread. ACE includes EDR in our security stack.
Firewalls block unauthorized access while allowing safe traffic. ACE configures both hardware and cloud firewalls for maximum protection.
MFA requires users to verify their identity with more than a password (e.g., SMS code, app token). This reduces the risk of stolen credentials leading to breaches.
