Cybersecurity is no longer an option
In 2025, 1 out of 3 Swiss SMEs suffered a cyberattack, according to figures from the National Cybersecurity Centre (NCSC). The consequences? Business interruption, loss of customer data, nLPD sanctions, and reputation damage.
The good news: 80% of these attacks could have been avoided with the right basic habits.
The 6 vital habits
- MFA everywhere: email, ERP, banking, cloud — without exception.
- Tested external backups: Microsoft 365 does not back up your data the way people think.
- Continuous awareness: 90% of attacks start with an email.
- Automatic updates on all workstations and servers.
- Robust password policy + enterprise manager.
- Incident response plan tested every year.
nLPD: what changes for you
The new Federal Act on Data Protection (nLPD) requires all Swiss companies to document their data processing, notify the FDPIC of leaks, and guarantee extended rights to data subjects. Non-compliance can cost up to 250,000 CHF.
