Exclusive Offer

SBA Member Cybersecurity Health Check

As a fellow member of the Small Business Association of Barbados, Next Step Technologies is offering SBA members a cybersecurity health check designed specifically for small and medium-sized businesses. We’ll help you identify potential security gaps and recommend practical steps to strengthen your business.

Why This Matters

Small Businesses Face the Same Cyber Threats as Larger Organizations

Small businesses increasingly depend on email, Microsoft 365, cloud applications, online banking, customer information and connected computers to operate. A compromised user account or infected computer can interrupt operations, expose sensitive information and create significant recovery costs. Effective cybersecurity requires more than installing antivirus software.

Email & Phishing

Attackers use fake emails, login pages and compromised accounts to steal credentials and financial information.

Ransomware

Malicious software can encrypt company information and disrupt business operations.

Microsoft 365 & Identity

Compromised Microsoft 365 accounts can expose email, OneDrive, SharePoint and business relationships.

AI & Cloud Applications

Employees may unintentionally expose business data through unapproved SaaS and generative AI applications.

The Health Check

Start With an NST Cybersecurity Health Check

NST will review key areas of your current security environment and help identify potential weaknesses that could expose your business to unnecessary risk.

  • Microsoft 365 security
  • Multi-factor authentication
  • Email security
  • Endpoint protection
  • Administrative accounts
  • Password and identity controls
  • Backup and recovery
  • Firewall and network security

  • AI and SaaS usage

What You Receive

  • Initial cybersecurity discussion
  • Review of selected security controls
