Cyber threats remain a growing risk for small businesses, with incidents becoming more frequent and more disruptive.

On average, a cyber attack costs a small business $56,600, with around 21 days lost to disruption and recovery. Most incidents involve human error, highlighting how everyday actions, such as clicking links or sharing information, can expose a business to risk.

For small businesses, these impacts can be difficult to absorb and may affect customer confidence and reputation. Taking simple, preventative steps can make a meaningful difference.

Cyber Wardens is a free, 10-minute online course designed for small business owners and staff. It provides practical, easy-to-understand guidance to help you recognise cyber risks, protect your business and build confidence online.

You don’t need technical expertise to take part. The course focuses on everyday behaviours and practical actions that help reduce common cyber risks.

For more information or to complete the free Cyber Wardens course, visit the Cyber Wardens website.
