SmallBiz Defense was built out of frustration.
After years covering technology and business for various publications, James Holloway kept seeing the same story: small business owners getting hit by cyberattacks they never saw coming — not because they were careless, but because nobody had ever explained the risks in plain English.
This site exists to fix that. No jargon. No scare tactics. No content written for IT departments. Just honest, tested guidance for business owners who have real companies to run and no time to become security experts.
Every tool reviewed on this site has been personally tested. Every guide is written with one question in mind: would this actually help a 10-person business tomorrow?
