Samsung Addresses SME Cyber Risks With Galaxy S26 Ultra Enterprise Edition
U.K. on March 18, 2026
New research has revealed the significant scale of cybersecurity risks facing small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the United Kingdom. The findings estimate that a single cyberattack could cost SMEs up to £100,000 in lost revenue and fines, underscoring the urgency of stronger security measures.
The survey of 1,000 SME owners showed that 21% of businesses still take a reactive approach to cybersecurity rather than a proactive one. At the same time, modern work habits have increased exposure to sensitive data as a growing number of employees now work remotely in public spaces.
Despite high awareness of common threats such as phishing, malware and unauthorized apps, one in five business owners reported they would not know if their device had been compromised. Financial readiness is also limited, with 69% of SMEs lacking dedicated funds or insurance to manage cyber incidents.
In response, Samsung Electronics has introduced the Galaxy S26 Ultra Enterprise Edition, designed with advanced security and privacy features for business users. The device includes a built-in Privacy Display to limit viewing angles and protect on-screen data in public settings, alongside Samsung Knox security for defense against cyber threats. Its AI-powered Personal Data Engine, combined with KEEP and Knox Vault, encrypts and stores sensitive information securely.
The survey’s findings highlight the growing need for SMEs to adopt proactive cybersecurity strategies. By integrating enterprise-grade protection directly into mobile devices, Samsung aims to help businesses safeguard sensitive data and adapt to increasingly flexible working environments.
