Information Security & Cyber Liability: Essential Steps to Protection

Posted by Tom Henell on Fri, Apr 01, 2011 @ 09:50 AM

These days, it is almost impossible to be in business and not collect or hold personally identifying information (PII) about your customers, employees, or business partners. If this information falls into the wrong hands, it could put these individuals at risk for identity theft.  More than 9 million Americans have identities stolen each year, and the impact to your business from a data breach could be significant. 

At least 46 states have enacted legislation requiring notification of security breaches involving personal information.
