Q2 2022: NOW AVAILABLE!
SMBVR
Small and Medium-Sized Businesses Vulnerabilities Report
The SMBVR is the first ever study of cybersecurity deficiencies detected from the outside-in at SMBs with Internet-facing assets in high value supply chain sectors.
The Q2 2022 SMBVR detected that small businesses in critical segments such as banks, credit unions, hospitals, and utilities are equally at risk.

The SMBVR is focused exclusively on detecting any significant vulnerabilities that an attacker could exploit from the outside. The focus of the research was to detect any significant vulnerabilities in a SMB’s website, software or application exposed to the Internet and visible and accessible to an attacker. The purpose of the SMBVR is to educate SMBs on significant vulnerabilities and how best to mitigate the risks cost-effectively and promptly, so SMBs can stay proactive and one step ahead of attackers and continue to grow and succeed.
This vulnerability is caused from weaknesses that allow an attacker to force a user to submit a malicious request unknowingly when the user is authenticated to the website so the site will have no way to distinguish between the forged request sent by the victim and a legitimate request sent by the victim, to cause a state change on the server, such as changing the victim’s password, and using the access to steal data or install ransomware.
CyberCatch utilized its innovative and proprietary “outside-in” vulnerabilities scanning tool, CyberXRay, to scan 19,375 randomly selected SMBs in the U.S. and Canada for vulnerabilities.
The Q2 2022 SMBVR detected that small businesses in critical segments such as banks, credit unions, hospitals, and utilities are equally at risk.
