# Preemptive Cyber Defense for Small Businesses

_Last updated: 2025-05-27_

Morphisec delivers runtime threat prevention for small and medium businesses (SMBs), protecting against ransomware, zero-day attacks, and fileless threats without requiring additional infrastructure or constant management overhead.

## The Problem for Small Businesses

Small businesses face disproportionate cyber risk. SMBs house large amounts of sensitive data and can serve as entry points to larger targets. One successful attack can cause irreparable financial and reputational damage.

## The Solution: Stop Attacks Before They Start

Morphisec combines Adaptive Exposure Management with Automated Moving Target Defense to identify security weaknesses and continuously adjust defenses against new and evasive threats.

### Core Benefits

| Capability | Outcome |
|---|---|
| Adaptive Exposure Management | Zeroes in on security weaknesses and continuously adjusts to address new and evasive threats |
| Easy deployment and maintenance | Reduces operational resources required, freeing team time |
| Runtime threat prevention | Stops ransomware, supply chain attacks, zero-days, fileless and in-memory attacks at runtime |
| Minimal operational burden | Does not generate alerts to chase and does not impact system or network performance |
| Layered defense integration | Complements existing XDR and Next-Gen AV platforms without replacement |

## Customer Outcomes

### Utilities Company (51–200 Employees)

An IT Manager at a utilities company stated: "It specifically protects against ransomware and zero-day attacks, needs only a small footprint to run, and has the ability to just slot into our environment and allow us the flexibility to continue using our current XDR and Next-Gen AV platforms as well."

### Merrick Bank (300–500 Employees)

Richard Kirschner, Director of Information Security at Merrick Bank, noted: "Morphisec initially supported defense-in-depth initiatives and filling 'cracks in the wall' that no other solution could. Since deploying Morphisec five years ago we've realized even greater value with additional capabilities like built-in vulnerability assessments, ransomware protection, credential theft protection and VDI security."
