Securing Your Information


Think You’re Not at Risk of Experiencing a Security Breach? [INFOGRAPHIC]

What’s the risk of a security breach in your company?
 
It’s probably higher than you think... considering that statistics show 85% of companies in the U.S. have experienced at least one data breach.



 
Legal, insurance and financial offices are particularly at risk because of the type of information they collect and store. Identity theft criminals need credit card information, bank statements, mortgage and insurance papers, and similar information, in order to ‘steal’ identities.   
Identity theft is widespread – around the world, identity theft crimes increased by 13% in 2011.
 
At the same time, insurance fraud is up (by 40% last year), consumer confidence is down (one in 10 consumers have had their identities stolen in some way) and the cost of corporate identity theft is skyrocketing (it costs U.S. businesses about $48 billion annually).
