EZShield,
a portfolio company of The Wicks Group (“Wicks”) and the leader in
digital identity protection and resolution, today announced a
comprehensive set of robust capabilities built within its
affordably-priced Small
Business Suite
that safeguards companies from the devastating impact
of a potential cyber threat or data breach, while also protecting
employees.

“With nearly 60 percent of small businesses being malware attack
victims, our new Small Business Suite is built to help Small and
Medium-Sized Businesses (SMBs) protect everything – from the foundation
of their livelihood to the people who execute upon their vision and
strategy,” said Rich
Scott
, Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) of EZShield. “As the
industry’s best-in-class provider, our team has packaged our
enterprise-class capabilities into a single-source solution for SMBs who
are serious about proactively addressing both business and personal
identity fraud and cybercrimes.”

Built on EZShield’s identity theft protection and mobile cybersecurity
capabilities, the Small Business Suite delivers a series of
mission-critical services that empower SMBs to run their business
effectively. Exclusive to its Small Business Suite is a Cyber Risk
Profile, powered by WhiteHawk, the first global online cybersecurity
exchange enabling SMBs to take smart action against cybercrime and
fraud. WhiteHawk’s Cyber Risk Profile empowers SMBs to pinpoint and
understand risks, develop a customized cybersecurity action plan, while
then identifying the tools required to safeguard the business.

“Our alignment with EZShield adds a critical and valuable component to
their Small Business Suite,” said Terry Roberts, CEO of WhiteHawk,
Inc
. “A majority of Small and Mid-Sized Businesses do not have the
expertise, nor the budget, to protect against cybercrime and fraud and
the devastating damage that can result, impacting their revenue and
reputation. Now, with affordable risk mitigation solutions through
WhiteHawk’s Cyber Risk Profile, SMBs will be equipped to identify what
threats they need to address today, and how best to defend their
business tomorrow. This integrated offering is truly game-changing.”

EZShield’s
Small Business Suite
is built with essential identity theft
protection and mobile cybersecurity services, enabling companies to
focus more time and attention on building capital, expanding their
customer base, and creating customers for life. The suite includes:

  • Business Credit Monitoring, Score, & Report | Business
    Credit Score, Business Credit Report, and Business Credit Monitoring
    so that SMBs can confidently manage their business credit.
  • Business Dark Web Monitoring | A must-have for businesses of
    any size, providing alerts if Personally Identifiable Information
    (PII) or sensitive business data is on the Dark Web, the unindexed,
    and often illegal, area of the Internet. For example, Employer
    Identification Number (EIN), domain, Creditsafe Safe Number, D-U-N-S
    Number, and corporate credit card number, are continuously monitored.
    Letting this information fall into the wrong hands can be catastrophic
    in terms of critical data loss, disruption to operations, financial
    losses stemming from restoring systems and files, and, of course,
    damage to the company’s reputation.
  • Fully-Managed Business Restoration | Exclusive service includes
    proactive capabilities and a white-glove response program, featuring
    access to dedicated resolution experts, to keep a company’s business
    identity safe.

Additionally, EZShield’s Small Business Suite includes access to an
innovative set of mobile cybersecurity capabilities through its Mobile
Defense Suite
:

  • Mobile Attack Control | Includes access to EZShield’s
    award-winning mobile app
    , performs comprehensive mobile device
    scanning and alerts employees if their device has been compromised. It
    looks for a wide array of threats including rogue apps, spyware,
    unsecured Wi-Fi connections, and even recognizes fake or “spoof”
    networks.
  • Mobile Attack View | Delivers a single-source
    view for an SMB’s internal team, showing any mobile threats from
    devices that are connected to the company’s system. This ability to
    recognize vulnerabilities in real-time gives technology leaders the
    advantage of stepping in to take action before a data breach occurs.

As part of the Small Business Suite, employees are also protected with
best-in-class identity theft protection capabilities and world-class
resolution services.

“Time is of the essence when it comes to small businesses understanding
and responding to the imminent threats targeting their livelihood and
their employees,” said Al Pascual, SVP, Research and Head of Fraud &
Security at Javelin
Strategy & Research
. “Whether in banking, insurance, or
healthcare, SMBs face cyber threats every day and tailored solutions are
critical to making them less vulnerable.”
