Cybersecurity giant Norton has recently unveiled a new security suite specifically designed for small and medium-sized businesses (SMB). Known as Norton Small Business, this all-in-one cybersecurity solution aims to provide SMBs with the same level of protection enjoyed by larger enterprises, without the need for a separate security department or extensive expertise.
Norton Small Business offers a range of features, including secure browsing, a password manager, and a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to safeguard day-to-day online activities. The solution is available 24/7 and also includes automated PC cleaning and optimization to prolong the lifespan of devices, secure cloud backup to minimize the risk of data loss, and software and driver updaters to reduce vulnerabilities that cybercriminals can exploit. Additionally, the package provides IT coverage and maintenance for up to 20 devices and comes with a 100% Virus Protection Promise.
The significance of this release lies in the fact that around 90% of global businesses are SMBs. Consequently, most companies lack the necessary level of protection required to stay secure in today’s digital landscape. With limited resources and employees often juggling multiple roles, SMBs are particularly vulnerable to cybercrime, with phishing attacks being a common threat. In 2022 alone, cybercrime cost UK businesses an average of £4200.
Massimo Rapparini, General Manager & Head of Small Business Safety at Gen (Norton’s owner), emphasized that Norton Small Business was developed with the aim of making cybersecurity accessible and easy for entrepreneurs. By providing comprehensive protection, Norton enables SMBs to focus on building successful businesses.
Norton Small Business is now available, with prices starting at £39.99/year and options for 6, 10, or 20-device plans. For more information on the Virus Protection Promise, click here.
