USHCC helps Business Owners Combat Surge in Cyber Attacks

America’s largest Hispanic business organization is now offering its members cyber and data breach solutions to help them meet the demand for cyber and data breach prevention, insurance and compliance. The program is made available through a new partnership with 360 Coverage Pros.

360 Coverage Pros, powered by Gallagher Affinity, will offer the United States Hispanic Chamber of Commerce access to programs that can help protect member business against the high costs associated with cyber or other types of data breaches.

The USHCC promotes the economic growth and interests of more than 4.4 million Hispanic-owned businesses, that combined, contribute over $700 billion to the American economy every year. It also advocates on behalf of 260 major American corporations and serves as the umbrella organization for more than 200 local chambers and business associations nationwide.

The increase in cyber-attacks on small businesses is a growing concern among members,” states United States Hispanic Chamber of Commerce President & CEO Javier Palomarez. “Small businesses are often less prepared and can be catastrophically impacted by cyber threats and breaches. They are seeking information, resources and solutions to protect themselves and their customers.”

Cybercriminals have been increasingly targeting small businesses in recent years, viewing them as easy targets due to their lack of significant IT expenditures, and preparation for cyber-attacks.

The impact of not being prepared for, or taking steps to prevent a data breach (or having Cyber Insurance in place to protect against loss) can be devastating for a small business,” states Scott Reid, national director of cyber insurance programs for the 360 Coverage Pros program.

“With these new Cyber and Data Breach Insurance options, and compliance and prevention tools, USHCC members now have easy access to solutions that can help them manage their cyber risk, maintain cybersecurity best practices and mitigate the damage done to their business by a data breach,” Reid said.

Other benefits include a dedicated Breach Response hotline and the ability to point, click and buy any of the programs in minutes, directly from the USHCC member benefits website. For more information, visit ushcc.com
