Cybersecurity Roadmap for SMBs (50–200 Employees)

Many small and mid-sized businesses know they need cybersecurity, but lack the internal resources to build a structured program. This roadmap outlines a practical approach.

Phase 1: Visibility

Begin with understanding your external attack surface, exposed credentials, and obvious misconfigurations. Without visibility, prioritization is impossible.

Phase 2: Baseline Testing

Conduct targeted penetration testing of critical systems. Focus on externally accessible services and revenue-generating platforms.

Phase 3: Prioritized Remediation

Address high-impact findings first. Risk reduction is more important than checklist completion.

Phase 4: Iterative Progress

Security maturity requires ongoing validation, exposure monitoring, and structured improvement cycles.

SMBs do not need enterprise-scale security programs. They need structured, repeatable, prioritized risk reduction.
