Welcome to our third collection of articles looking at security, with particular focus on the small and medium-sized business (SMB) market (that is, firms with up to 1000 employees).

We believe that SMBs occupy an exciting area of the cyber-security space; indeed, such organisations are increasingly aware of the risks that they face if they are not adequately protected against cyber threats. Also, this segment of the market is rapidly growing; we forecast that SMBs' spend on cyber security worldwide will grow from USD76 billion in 2022 to USD109 billion in 2026.

The articles and insights featured in this brochure are derived from Analysys Mason’s SMB Technology Forecaster and give a flavour of our cyber-security research. They cover the following topics

This article provides a detailed perspective on mobile security, one of the fastest growing solutions in the cyber-security market.

In this article, we discuss how cyber security and MSP-focused vendors can boost their revenue in the SMB market by helping MSPs to build their security capabilities.
