With the ever-increasing threat of data breaches, Nexio is pleased to inform you that the Merchant Cyber Liability Program is now automatically part of the (MSP) agreement.  With a cyberattack occurring every 39 seconds, and the average breach exceeding more than $75,000 in expense to the average small business, this policy will provide financial protection in the instance of a data breach.  Details can be found below.  

 

The Merchant Breach Protection Program protects each merchant up to $100,000 per MID and $500,000 per merchant.  

 

The Program protects merchants for the cost of an actual or suspected violation of a privacy regulation due to a covered security breach that results in the unauthorized release of payment card information in the merchants care, custody or control. 

 

The Merchant Cyber Liability Program:

  • Includes PCI DSS level 2, 3 and 4 merchant accounts, regardless of whether the merchant accounts were thought to be PCI DSS compliant at the time of the breach
  • A forensic audit when a data breach is suspected
  • Crisis management and fraud prevention expense (breach notification, credit monitoring,  public relations and associated legal expenses)
  • PCI fines and penalties
