SAN DIEGO, Calif. – NAMIC Annual Convention (booth 902) (PRWEB) September 24, 2015 -- IDT911™ today announced a partnership with NAMICO Insurance Solutions to offer data breach response coverage and services to Insurance Company Directors & Officers Liability and for Insurance Agents Errors & Omissions Insurance member companies. The service will help businesses proactively plan for a data breach crisis and professionally respond should a data breach occur.
The NAMICO data breach response coverage is sold as an endorsement with a $50,000 or $100,000 limit for first party. The coverage comes with IDT911’s breach management portal and services, which provide:
• Access to data security education and proactive protection tips

• A calculator to determine the expenses associated with notifying affected individuals of the breach
• Proactive identity protection guidance and identity restoration services to impacted individuals
• Crisis communication processes for the affected business

For additional protection to help avoid a breach, member companies can also obtain security assessments through IDT911 sister company IDT911 Consulting™. Security assessments provide a top-line understanding of the organizational, administrative, operational and system practices to best protect sensitive data. Each evaluation is custom tailored to the company’s size and industry to identify key areas for attention.
“Businesses are increasingly at-risk of a devastating cybersecurity breach as threats continue to evolve, and NAMICO is constantly looking for ways to mitigate this by enhancing the value of the insurance products we offer,” said NAMICO's President and CEO Tim Sullivan. “Partnering with IDT911 affords us the opportunity to provide member insurance companies with critical breach resolution services, as well the proactive services to help avoid one.”
Nearly all companies store sensitive customer and business data such as email addresses, phone numbers, Social Security numbers, medical information, propriety business information and tax information. As organizations continue to utilize cloud-based services like CRM and sales tools, and third party vendors such as HR and payroll solutions, the risk of a breach only increases.
