As small and mid-sized businesses continue expanding digitally, cybersecurity is no longer a “nice to have” — it’s mission-critical. Whether you’re running a storefront or processing customer data online, **digital defenses have to stay strong** across every frontier.

Recently, Katie Ann McCarver at Vegas Inc / Las Vegas Sun sat down with David Rounds, CEO of NetEffect in Vegas, to highlight how cyberattacks are hitting all types of businesses—not just big corporations or casinos.

Cyber Threats Aren’t Size-Selective

From local shops to regional businesses, no one is immune. Even industries like hospitality and retail—once considered off the radar—are now being targeted with phishing, ransomware, and IoT exploits.

Why SMBs Are Attractive Targets

  • **Understaffed IT Teams** – Most don’t have dedicated cybersecurity staff.
  • **Unpatched Systems** – Firmware updates and endpoint protection often get overlooked.
  • **Less Segmentation** – One compromised device can give attackers broad access.

Faces in the Wild: Vegas Case Studies

“Cybersecurity is vital for businesses of all sizes—not just the Fortune 500.”

– David Rounds, CEO of NetEffect

How to Keep Your Business Safe

  • **Perform regular vulnerability scans** across offices, POS terminals, and IoT devices.
  • **Update firmware** and software on everything—from routers to payment systems.
  • **Implement EDR/MDR** for about-the-clock endpoint monitoring.
  • **Segment your network** to separate guest, staff, and back-office systems.
  • **Train employees** on phishing and safe digital practices.
  • **Backup regularly** and test your incident response plan.
