One day at work, I became curious about what would happen if this confidential data got into the wrong hands of someone who could misuse it. So, I started to do some research, and I was shocked by what I discovered. Like most people, I had always presumed cybersecurity to be something primarily concerning large companies and organisations. But what I quickly discovered was that many cyber-attacks specifically target SMEs - small to medium sized businesses. Yet, many startups and SMEs are either not aware of the cybersecurity threat or don't have the resources to effectively manage and combat it. After learning more about cyber security incidents and the very real threats businesses and individuals face in the digital era, I knew I had to help. Help raise awareness and help combat cybercrime. So I founded Security Lit. While I had no background in cybersecurity, and no experience in running a business, I did have a powerful vision.
