Aptica has expanded its cybersecurity services in Auburn, IN, adding data loss prevention for small and mid-sized businesses, along with new guidance on configuring existing Microsoft 365 tools to reduce breach risk.

Fort Wayne, United States, October 7, 2026 /NewsNetwork/ -- Aptica recently expanded its cybersecurity services to include data loss prevention for small and mid-sized businesses in Auburn, IN. The move responds to a rising risk of data breaches facing local companies that manage sensitive customer and financial records daily; Aptica frames the expansion as a response to threats that have grown more common for smaller organizations without dedicated security staff.

Data loss can carry consequences severe enough to end a business outright, notes Aptica. Research cited in industry analysis indicates that 93 percent of small businesses suffering prolonged data loss, lasting 10 days or more, file for bankruptcy within a year. Coupled with separate statistics indicating that small businesses are the targets of roughly half of all cyberattacks, the urgency of these solutions becomes clear.
To address these stakes, Aptica has released a guide for Auburn-area small and mid-sized businesses covering data loss and breach prevention. The resource focuses on protecting sensitive customer and financial data without spending on tools a business may not need.
A central finding in the guide is that many businesses already own data loss prevention tools through their Microsoft 365 licenses, often left unconfigured or entirely inactive. Aptica reports that once properly configured, these included capabilities can address roughly 80 percent of a typical small or mid-sized business's data loss risk at no additional cost.
Aptica works with clients to audit existing Microsoft 365 licensing, identify which sensitive data types require protection, and configure the built-in data loss prevention policies already available. The company then monitors and adjusts those policies over a period of three to six months, a process meant to reduce false positives and limit disruption to daily operations.
The Aptica team recommends starting with Microsoft 365's built-in tools for most small and mid-sized businesses, reserving standalone data loss prevention software for particular situations. Those situations include companies operating outside the Microsoft ecosystem or organizations that require advanced behavioral analytics for insider threat detection.
For business owners in Auburn weighing how to protect data without overextending budgets, Aptica's expanded cybersecurity services and new guide offer a starting point grounded in what companies already have in place.
