What’s the most affordable way for an SME to strengthen cyber security?
Start with the basics, then add targeted upgrades—like staff training and stronger email security—as your budget allows. Ensure your Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace is configured by expert to ensure basic security has been applied.

If you’re watching costs, the best approach is to fix the biggest risks first. Most attacks against SMEs come through:
- Phishing emails
- Weak passwords
- Outdated software
- Poor Microsoft 365 configuration
The Legacy package handles some of this, but upgrading specific elements gives far better protection without a huge jump in cost. Adding enhanced email filtering, better identity protection (MFA, conditional access), and improved data backup resilience offers excellent value.
If budget allows, moving to Proactive gives you a more balanced, long-term solution that addresses both prevention and detection.
