The Comprehensive Solution Minimizing Risk…Maximizing Trust
Are You At Risk For A Data Breach?
If you think that hackers are only targeting large companies - think again.
According to National Cyber Security Alliance, one in five small businesses is the victim of cybercrime each year. And of those, 60 percent go ‘belly up’ within six months after an attack.
But What About You?
According to a recent Farm Bureau survey, nearly 87 percent of farmers said they were unsure of what to do if a security breach occurred at a company holding their data. What’s more, only about one in 20 said that companies managing their information had outlined a security-breach plan.
“Manufacturers are expecting dealers to address data security and properly protect themselves and the brand”

Here are just a few examples that many dealers don’t consider when evaluating risks.
