A new way for SMBs to protect against cyber threats.<\/p>\n

With cyberattacks increasingly focused on small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs), security remains a major challenge for businesses today. In the past year, ransomware attacks have increased by 300% \u2014 and SMBs comprise between 50-75% of victims.<\/a> Additionally, as security threats become more automated, indiscriminate, and sophisticated, businesses are faced with a higher rate of successful attacks.<\/p>\n

To address this concern, Microsoft is purposefully investing in security solutions geared toward SMBs with the introduction of tools such as Defender for Business<\/a>. With general availability expected in Microsoft’s Q4, Microsoft Defender for Business is a new standalone security solution designed to provide easy-to-use enterprise-grade endpoint security for businesses with up to 300 employees.<\/p>\n

Pax8 provides your first look at this exciting, cost-effective offering meant to empower SMBs to take control of their business\u2019 security posture.<\/p>\n
