Why Cybersecurity Protection is More Crucial Than Ever
Protect Your Business and Personal Digital Equipment
Last week it was announced that 2.9 billion highly sensitive data records including social security numbers, full names, addresses, phone numbers, and more were hacked from the company, National Public Data, in April and put up for sale on the dark web for $3.5 mil, and then for free recently, leading to this announcement! This is a stark reminder that no business, home network equipment, or individual is immune to cyber threats. If a company this large, which should have been extremely secure at storing all of this public data, was not protected against this catastrophic attack, you may want to ask yourself how well you are protected! As an expert cybersecurity provider, it is unfortunate that we must tell you that NPD’s security measures were feeble which is why they were compromised! Is it your turn to fall victim to an attack that will cause you to lose everything, or will you decide to protect your business and personal identity today? It’s time to get protected correctly with cybersecurity protection from SMBWISE!

That’s why we offer comprehensive cybersecurity protection at an affordable price for your company and personal digital tools. Our service is designed to provide you with peace of mind by identifying and addressing vulnerabilities that could leave your business or personal home and mobile systems exposed to cyber threats.
Our cybersecurity protection goes beyond basic security measures. We conduct a thorough scan of your systems to uncover exposed data, such as passwords, social security numbers, and other sensitive information that could be exploited by hackers. By having us proactively secure this data for you, you’re not just protecting yourself—you’re also safeguarding your clients and your loved ones from the devastating consequences of a data breach.
The Critical Need for a Risk Intelligence Scan for Businesses and Personal Digital Equipment
For all businesses large and small that are using multiple connected devices, we strongly recommend our Risk Intelligence Scan. This service provides a comprehensive analysis of any single device up to an unlimited number of devices on your network, identifying potential vulnerabilities before they can be exploited. Larger networks inherently present more opportunities for cyber threats, making a thorough scan essential to maintaining a strong security posture.
Our Risk Intelligence Scan isn’t just about identifying risks; it’s about providing actionable insights that allow you to fortify your defenses. This is especially critical for businesses that handle sensitive client information, such as financial advisors, real estate professionals, and law offices.
Financial Advisors: Your clients trust you with their most sensitive financial data. A breach could lead to devastating financial losses for them and irreparable damage to your reputation. SMBWISE’s Risk Intelligence Scan helps you identify exposed client information, such as account details and social security numbers, ensuring you protect your clients’ portfolios and maintain their trust.
Real Estate Professionals: Whether handling transactions, managing properties, or processing mortgage applications, you deal with vast amounts of sensitive client information. From social security numbers to financial records, any data breach can jeopardize not just a sale but your entire business. Our Risk Intelligence Scan ensures that your client's personal and financial information remains secure throughout all stages of the real estate process.
Law Offices: Confidentiality is the cornerstone of legal practice. Clients rely on you to protect sensitive case files, personal information, and privileged communications. A data breach could lead to lost cases and destroy client relationships. SMBWISE's Risk Intelligence Scan helps you safeguard client data, ensuring your legal practice remains secure and compliant with all relevant regulations.
Healthcare Practices: Patient records contain some of the most sensitive information available. Protecting this data is not just a matter of trust but a legal requirement.
