Protect the data of Britain's small businesses

Small companies deserve simple security defaults, rapid breach notices and practical support from the platforms they depend on.

Every signature adds visible support to a clear, practical request.

Why we are asking

The ask

Platforms serving small businesses should provide secure defaults, understandable account protections and fast, useful incident communication.

Why this matters

A compromised account can interrupt trading, payroll, customer communication and access to cash. Smaller firms often have less specialist security capacity to absorb that disruption.

The standard

Security guidance should be actionable, recovery routes should be visible and material incidents should be communicated in language a business owner can use.
