Here are the top three threats small businesses should watch out for in 2025 and how to prepare for them.
Phishing scams are nothing new, but in 2025, cybercriminals will be using artificial intelligence to make these attacks more convincing than ever.
AI can create personalised emails that mimic legitimate communication from suppliers, clients, or even colleagues. These emails are designed to deceive recipients into clicking malicious links or sharing sensitive data.
The rise of "Ransomware-as-a-Service" is making it easier for criminals to target small businesses. RaaS platforms, run like subscription services, provide ransomware tools to less technically skilled hackers.
This means attacks are likely to increase in frequency and sophistication, often crippling businesses by encrypting critical data until a ransom is paid.
Small businesses often rely on third-party vendors for software, tools, and services. In 2025, cybercriminals are expected to target these supply chains, injecting malicious code into trusted applications.
Once the compromised software is installed, hackers can gain access to your systems.
Cyber security threats are constantly evolving, but preparation is key. Begin the new year by auditing your existing defences and addressing any vulnerabilities.
