The Top SMB Cybersecurity Challenges

In this episode, Allot's Product Marketing Director, Michael Schachter, is joined by Antje Rozinger, Director of Product Management @ Allot - to discuss the main challenges of small to medium businesses when it comes to cyber security. First, we put a spotlight on what, or who exactly are the SMBs. The definition changes from one country to another when it comes to number of employees in different industries. However, certain criteria remain the same across the board. Then our specialists detail the unique requirement of SMBs for cyber security solutions due to them being a relatively easy target for cyber-criminals, mostly due to the lack of manpower, budget and at times required skills to put up proper cyber defenses for their businesses. We go down the rabbit hole to inquire of what exactly are the default security settings which SMBs turn to - but no surprise there, that these means of security are lacking in scope and capabilities. We sum it up with the route in which telecommunication providers can, and at times are asked to supply a complete security solution for their business clientele. Moreover, we go over Allot's two main solutions for CSPs to supply this demand.
