StrongKeep brings enterprise-grade cybersecurity within reach of small businesses As a Singapore-based cybersecurity startup, StrongKeep is focused on helping SMBs protect themselves and meet compliance requirements, without the cost or complexity of enterprise tools. While large enterprises continue to invest in newer and more comprehensive cybersecurity platforms, SMBs struggle to keep the pace not only because they lack the budget, but also the talent needed to manage their cybersecurity.

Statistics from cybersecurity vendors show SMBs remain one of most exploited businesses in the region when it comes to ransomware, with many also ending up paying the ransom because they don’t have sufficient backup or recovery capabilities. This has led to an increased demand for managed security services providers (MSSPs) in the region, with more cybersecurity vendors also customizing their solutions to support this increased demand. MSSPs are also reevaluating their offerings to make their services more affordable for SMBs, without having to compromise solutions. However, there is still a segment in SMBs that remain vulnerable because they can't even afford some of the MSSP offerings. These include micro SMBs (MSMBs) or even businesses with headcounts that are less than 50 employees, like a law firm for example.
