Data Breach Incident Response & Remedies

Data theft and data loss occurs daily with millions of records being lost each year. Depending on where you conduct business, you will likely have an obligation to notify persons that may be potentially affected as a result of a breach. Whether the loss is by accident or malicious, it is troublesome and costly. The negative impact to your brand and customer trust can be significant. The Ponemon Institute calculates that ultimately, data breach costs to a business equate to roughly $200.00 per record.

In our own SME Data Breach study conducted by the Ponemon Institute, 22% of small businesses had already suffered a data breach. It can take years to build a brand and image, but only a few moments to destroy it. Fortunately, our programs provide many of the tools and benefits that can help you prevent and survive a data breach.
