Why 'Good Enough' Cybersecurity Isn’t Good Enough Anymore

Cybersecurity has evolved—have you?
For years, small businesses and law firms believed that basic antivirus and a password change every few months was “good enough.” But the truth is, cyber threats have grown more advanced, while many businesses are still using defense tactics from a decade ago.
If you're still relying on default protections, outdated systems, or hoping that you're too small to be targeted, here's a reality check: you're not invisible anymore. In fact, you're a prime target.
The Modern Threat Landscape
Cybercrime isn’t what it used to be.
Today’s attackers use AI-powered phishing schemes, ransomware kits sold on the dark web, and social engineering tactics so sophisticated they fool even experienced professionals. They don't care if you’re a 10-person firm or a multinational company—they’re looking for weak links.
And the numbers are staggering:
43% of cyberattacks target small businesses
60% of small companies go out of business within 6 months of a data breach
Law firms are top-tier targets because of the sensitive, high-value information they hold
The reality? If you’re online, you’re on someone’s radar.
What “Good Enough” Security Gets You
We’ve seen it again and again:A business installs antivirus, sets up a firewall once, maybe uses two-factor authentication—and then checks the cybersecurity box.
Meanwhile, behind the scenes:
Backups are outdated or untested
Employee devices aren’t monitored
Emails are vulnerable to phishing
There’s no incident response plan in place
This approach is like locking the front door but leaving the windows open. It creates a false sense of security—and when something happens, it’s already too late.
