But I think some of the easy things that I would start with is number one, strong, unique password.

So an example that could be, have it as a sentence.

So it could be, I enjoy long walks on the beach, exclamation mark.

It's easy to remember.

I also think people just try to reuse the same password because we have so many systems that we log into each day that we don't want to reuse them.

So I think by having a sentence that's easy to remember is a very easy, free way to start to equip your small business to mature your cybersecurity posture.

The other thing would be multi-factor authentication.

So again, we're not just relying off our password.

We want to use an authenticator app or a text message that gets sent to our phone that we're all familiar with.

And the good thing is like, you know, big banks and that, that is part of what you have to do.

You can't really nowadays leverage a lot of their platforms and systems without that.

And then I would say as well, there is,

because of media and what's happening at the moment and podcasts like this, Sean, would be building awareness in scams around the phishing.

So I think that even 10 years ago, the awareness really wasn't there, but I do think small businesses are starting to understand, hey, I've really got to do something about this.

Well, I would say that there's a real role in making cybersecurity more accessible and practical.

I think historically what's really happened is enterprises have made it very convoluted for people to understand or, again, I'm a big enterprise, let's have to blow things out of proportion.

So I think what we're seeing probably in the market now and even programs like FutureFit is making it very easy, tangible, digestible for businesses on everything

Here's the first step.

Here's where you start.

And then here's the way we're going to move forward.
