When people think about cybersecurity, they often picture firewalls, antivirus software, and high-end tech. But the truth is, your biggest defence is your people. https://t.co/rX46U001aa?

Cybercrime isn’t slowing down — and unfortunately, small and medium businesses are increasingly on the front lines. In South Africa, the cost of a single cyberattack can cripple operations, damage your reputation, and even lead to legal trouble. https://t.co/Kmb72aLiUB?
