This past May, Webroot surveyed more than 600 IT decision-makers at medium-sized companies (with between 100 and 499 employees) in the U.S., U.K., and Australia. The survey focused on how these small businesses perceived new threats facing their organizations. 

 

Some of the answers were surprising.

 

Key stats: 

 

• 96% of those surveyed believe they are susceptible to cyber threats.
  
• 80% use third-party IT security resources (mixed-use IT and security teams).
  
• 94% are updating their security budgets to account for mitigating new threats.
  
• 71% still admit not being ready to address cybersecurity threats.
