small business security statistics

[jackadaniel at gmail.com (Jack Daniel)]

Brian Krebs has done a good job of reporting on this issue, see his
blog at http://www.krebsonsecurity.com/, he even has a "Target: Small
Business" section with numerous posts on the topic, that's at
http://www.krebsonsecurity.com/category/smallbizvictims/

Short version of this situation: Most small biz are no more tech savvy
than home users, but don't have the financial account protections of
individuals, and usually have more in the bank than an individual- so
they're a great and vulnerable target.
