Georgia Cyber Liability
Hackers are trying very hard to breach your Georgia business computers. While some cyber attacks originate within the United States, it is foreign hackers that lead the list of problems for most American companies. Over 50% of cyber losses come from third party hackers, 20% from human errors, and less than 19% from system errors.
Leading Causes of Cyber Attacks
- Viruses loaded onto computers
- Third party attacks of financial records
- Third party access to computer systems
- Employees hacking or loading a virus
- Employees misuse of computers, or having laptops stolen

A restaurant had 200 credit card records stolen. The hacker was able to charge $120,000 on the credit cards. The restaurant incurred notification costs and direct damages of over $250,000.
