Enterprise-grade security. SMB price point.
Threatstealth packages WAF, endpoint detection, identity monitoring, phishing simulation, and compliance automation into one console designed for small businesses and fast-growing startups.
What is Cybersecurity for Small Business & Startups — SMB Security Platform?
SMB cybersecurity with Threatstealth means a single platform that covers the security controls a small business or startup actually needs: a web application firewall to block attacks, endpoint detection to catch malware and ransomware, identity monitoring to stop account takeovers, phishing awareness training to protect your team, and compliance automation to satisfy customer security reviews — all managed from one console without needing a dedicated security team.
Why small businesses are the #1 ransomware target in 2026
- 62% of ransomware attacks target companies with fewer than 1,000 employees — attackers know SMBs have weaker defences
- Enterprise security tools are priced and designed for 500-person security teams; SMBs can't afford or operate them
- A single phishing email, unpatched endpoint, or reused password is enough to trigger a breach that shuts down operations
- Enterprise customers and investors now require proof of security controls before signing contracts
- Most SMBs have no incident response plan — when a breach happens, every hour without a runbook costs more money
A four-step operational model
Protect your web presence
Deploy the Threatstealth WAF in front of your applications. Block SQL injection, XSS, bots, and credential-stuffing attacks automatically.
- OWASP Top 10 protection
- Bot mitigation
- Zero-config rule set
Secure every device
Enrol laptops and servers into endpoint detection. Catch malware, ransomware behaviour, and policy drift before it causes downtime.
- Malware & ransomware detection
- Device compliance checks
- Remote response actions
Train your team
Run monthly phishing simulations to find which employees click. Track click rates, run awareness training, and reduce your human attack surface.
- Realistic phishing campaigns
- Click-rate tracking
- Inline awareness training
Pass customer security reviews
Map your controls to SOC 2 and ISO 27001. Generate compliance evidence automatically and respond to security questionnaires in minutes instead of days.
- SOC 2 evidence automation
- ISO 27001 control mapping
- Auto-drafted questionnaire responses
Outcomes for security teams
Attackers target SMBs first
Small businesses are the highest-volume ransomware target because most have no active defences. Threatstealth closes that gap.
One tool, not seven
Replace the fragmented SMB security stack — separate WAF, EDR, phishing tool, and compliance platform — with one console.
No security hire needed
The platform is designed for business owners and engineers, not security experts. The AI assistant explains every alert in plain English.
Direct answers
Do small businesses need cybersecurity?+
Yes — small businesses are the #1 target for ransomware and phishing attacks. Attackers prefer SMBs because they typically have weaker defences and are less likely to have incident response plans.
What cybersecurity does a startup need?+
At minimum: a WAF for your web apps, endpoint detection on all devices, MFA enforced everywhere, phishing awareness training, and a basic incident response plan. Threatstealth packages all of these.
How much does SMB security cost?+
Threatstealth replaces 5–7 point tools (WAF, EDR, phishing platform, compliance tool, identity monitoring) with one platform — lowering total cost while improving coverage.
Can a small team manage Threatstealth?+
Yes. The platform is designed for a founder, CTO, or IT generalist. The AI assistant explains every alert; the compliance module runs automatically.
Do my customers require security certifications?+
Enterprise customers increasingly require SOC 2 Type II before approving vendors. Threatstealth automates the evidence collection needed to pass a SOC 2 audit.
