You and your employees click the Send button hundreds of times a day.

As much as the Digital Economy and the IoE create opportunities for companies and consumers, expected
to generate $19-trillion in value to organizations over the next decade, they also create opportunities for hackers and cybercriminals. With an expanded attack surface represented by the IoE, cybercriminals look to cash in on the estimated value of $450 billion to over $1 trillion of theHacker Economy.
A lot of well-known companies with big names and big security budgets have been hacked recently. But the threat exists for everyone.
Did you know that over 41% of targeted aBacks last year were against organizaDons with fewer than 500 employees? Or that in Cisco’s most recent annual security report, 100% of corporate
networks examined had malicious traffic on them?
Chances are that you’ve already been hacked – you just don’t know it yet.
