Online business presents less risks compared to offline?

[Bookwormlux1]

I don't know about you, but I feel that online business tend to present lesser risks compared to offline business. You work from the comfort of your home and you have little to worry about.
Offline risks:
-Accident while traveling to get things you need.
-Armed robbery
And lots more
What do you think?

Online business in terms of personal security is indeed safer, but online businesses are also at risk, for example in terms of fraud.

Both poses risks either online or offline. Offline business poses more risk conspired to online. Different risks may occur in process of business dealing such as accidents probably by natural disasters or man made. Online business may expose you to cyber attack and that’s also dangerous.

I don't quite agree with this , considering the present scams online. Every business has its own pros and cons

 

[Olageshin]

Online business is very cool if it's legit as there are so many scams everywhere.
If you are lucky to find an online business that is legit it is better than an some offline business

My wife has the privilege of working from home when the lockdown was declared here in March. For 2 months she did not go to her office and was only using the video conferencing for their daily meeting. You are right, less risk, less expenses. However, my wife's job is not online work but an office job. I guess no online work can match her salary. More risk for the office but more compensation and benefits as well.

In my opinion, both jobs have their risks. Online we have fraud and hackers. Out of line risk with armed robberies, scams and damage to company property

Businesses both online and offline depending on its type can have various degrees of advantages and disadvantages if you can have an online and offline presence for your business please do

Yes, online business isn't that risky as offline Business. The remote job part of it makes it more enticing. You can work at the corner of your room and still make your cash

Both options have their own risks and benefits. You can do things at your convenience online and you save yourself from the stress of commuting but you miss all the physical interactions you have with people and colleagues.

Offline jobs are having high risk compare to when you work online. Most times most people get accident travelling to place of work, and some are exposed to kidnappers that ask for huge ransomed. There fore business owners of offline jobs have to find means to protect their workers and also take care of their health bills.

Like most people have said, both have their own pros and cons. It just depends on what you as an individual are able to put in place to guard against all these attacks, online or offline, and which ones you'd rather have to deal with. I much prefer to work online and remotely but there are risks to consider such as cyber attacks, power outages and internet outages etc that can hinder work.

 

[Pirate]

Offline business to me is preferable but both have their own risks, based on security online business is better. But while working online you can also fall victim to scammers, fraudsters and many other risks so I can't really say online presents lesser risks.

 

[Ridorz]

I can not totally agreed with you because there is nothing that do not have risky. Even in online There are some people that do not have another work than to steal or hacked account online.

It depends of the field of work it depends, and the answers are actually subjective in regards to any answer we can give. Online business will not always presents less risks because there are many points to take in consideration.

These are some dangerous risks that are associated with offline businesses. But I still see offline risk to be better because online risks are very dangerous and even how to keep data alone will over come most of the offline risks.

You are right,but it is easy to protect one's data if you have the money and you are willing to spend to handle that. It all depends on how willing to protect your data by spending money to get it done.
