In an age where digital commerce is becoming more of a "must have" for B2B companies, cybersecurity has become a strategic concern. Yet, nearly half of companies lack basic protection. Here’s why it’s time to act.
How do you protect your e-commerce against cyber attacks?
Our report "Nordic Digital Commerce in B2B" showed that only 51% of companies have systems to protect their digital sales. This means 49% are still unprotected, a major business risk.
Why is cybersecurity a leadership issue and not just an IT issue?
Security is more than a technical concern. It's a leadership issue that impacts customer data, brand reputation, and revenue streams. A single incident can quickly lead to lost trust and costly consequences.
What are the most important actions for e-commerce security?
Getting started doesn't have to be complicated. Begin with:- Set up annual security review routines
- Involve legal and management in the security work and process
- Demand security standards when procuring digital systems
