EP 6: The Cooperative Defense: Enterprise Security and Resilience for Small Business

Small businesses aren’t too small to be targeted—they’re often the entry point. In this episode of The Digital Keep, Guy Teets breaks down why traditional cybersecurity models fail small businesses and introduces a practical alternative: the Cybersecurity and Network Resilience Cooperative. Drawing from real-world events like the Target breach and the Oldsmar water treatment attack, this conversation connects enterprise cybersecurity concepts to local communities, small manufacturers, and critical infrastructure. This episode explores how shared resources—SOC, NOC, dual ISP failover, and threat intelligence—can transform cybersecurity from an individual burden into a collective strength. Because the threat doesn’t care how small you are.
