Time
The balance between time management and cybersecurity poses a challenge for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). In particular, IT administrators in SMEs often face the dual burden of everyday IT maintenance and maintaining cybersecurity. Adding to the difficulty is the frequent lack of specific knowledge to effectively implement sustainable and targeted security measures.
The Pareto Principle in the Context of Cybersecurity
The Pareto Principle, also known as the 80/20 rule, states that 80% of results can be achieved with 20% of the efforts. In the realm of cybersecurity, this means that a small number of security measures can cover a large portion of potential security risks. Therefore, it is crucial for IT administrators in SMEs to identify and implement the most effective strategies to ensure the greatest possible security with minimal time investment.
