Our Mission
Small Business Security Guide was created to help small businesses protect themselves from cyber threats. We believe that effective cybersecurity shouldn't require a dedicated IT team or a massive budget. Our goal is to provide clear, actionable guidance that any business owner can follow.
Who We Are
We're a team of cybersecurity researchers and writers focused on making enterprise-level security knowledge accessible to small businesses with 2-50 employees. We test and review security tools, create practical guides, and help business owners make informed decisions about protecting their data, their customers, and their livelihoods.
What We Do
We provide free, comprehensive guides on topics including:
- Cybersecurity checklists tailored to small business size and industry
- Ransomware prevention and recovery
- Email security and phishing prevention
- POS security for restaurants and retail
- HIPAA compliance for small medical practices
- Password management and VPN recommendations
We also offer a free interactive security assessment quiz that provides personalized recommendations based on your business's specific needs.
Our Approach
Every guide we publish is based on documented vendor information, independently published sources, and practical cybersecurity guidance. We provide transparent comparisons of strengths, limitations, fit, and setup effort. Our recommendations are independent — while we do participate in affiliate programs, our content is never influenced by commercial relationships.
