The goal is to provide SMEs with an overview of basic and more advanced cyber security measures. Where all SMEs should implement cyber security according to the result of their own risk assessments, this guide provides a quick list of security controls that might or should be implemented.

This guide should enable SMEs to improve their cyber security levels, reduce cyber security risks, mitigate vulnerabilities and improve their resilience. It will provide an easy framework so that small and medium-sized enterprises can safely integrate their businesses into a worldwide round-the-clock marketplace.
