Resumo(s)

This research aims to create a framework that helps SMEs mitigate the various risks of cyberspace. In this digital era, the dangers of cyberspace are increasing, which leads to the need for organizations to adopt adequate security measures capable of preventing cyberattacks. However, a large number of employees in SMEs do not know how to act to mitigate the risks already mentioned. Thus, the development of a security toolbox could be a solution to help SMEs be less exposed to the dangers of cyberspace. For this research, a theoretical overview associated with cybersecurity to understand the current state of security solutions and the different control options in the organizational environment was essential. Last but not least, a clear understanding of the SMEs needs, in the area of security, was also crucial in the development and construction of the proposed artifact. To evaluate and validate the security toolbox, focus group meetings will be scheduled. The implementation of a security toolbox that helps SMEs to identify, protect, respond and recover from potential cyberattacks, may be relevant and can provide great results for different organizational environments to mitigate the risks of cyberspace. The suggested framework would play an important role, to the users of the security Toolbox to get more know-how to protect the business environment. Also, may be seen as a vantage to the science since will help to develop the research related to improving the techniques and tools disposal to mitigate the high risks of cyberspace.
