Abstract:

Small businesses using technology are at risk of cyberattacks and often do not have adequate cybersecurity knowledge, budgets, or dedicated security staff. Attackers know small businesses are accordingly vulnerable. An attack can result in severe losses or the closure of business, making this knowledge critical. Businesses ownership can originate with newly graduated entrepreneurship students, so that sample is selected for this study to determine if cybersecurity knowledge is gained through undergraduate curriculum. The preliminary findings of the study imply that entrepreneurship education might be enhanced with coursework that would help future small businesses avoid becoming victims of cyberattacks.
