Nevada and Florida small business and healthcare leaders should pay attention to this.

The FBI’s 2025 Internet Crime Report shows a clear and concerning trend. Small businesses and healthcare organizations are now among the most targeted victims of cybercrime, particularly in states like Nevada and Florida.

Florida ranks in the top three nationally for total cybercrime complaints and total reported losses. Nevada ranks near the top in the country for cybercrime complaints and losses when measured per capita. That means organizations in Nevada are statistically more likely to be targeted than those in most other states.

Healthcare and Public Health continue to be identified as one of the most targeted critical infrastructure sectors. Ransomware attacks, data breaches, and business email compromise remain the most damaging threats. These incidents affect not only IT systems but also patient safety, regulatory exposure, operations, and trust.

Small and mid sized businesses are increasingly targeted because attackers assume defenses are thinner. Email based fraud, vendor impersonation, and AI driven phishing are driving billions in losses nationwide. Many of these attacks bypass traditional security tools entirely.

The use of artificial intelligence is accelerating cybercrime. Fake executive messages, realistic vendor impersonation, and convincingly written phishing emails are making attacks harder to detect for staff and leadership alike.

The takeaway is simple. Cybersecurity in 2025 is no longer about company size. It is about preparedness.

The real question is not why would someone target us. The question is are we ready when they do. If you are unsure of the security of your organization, please schedule a discovery call with one of our experts: https://Healthytechsolutions.com/discoverycall
