Protect Yourself Against a Client Data Breach!

Client data protection is important. As you use many methods to transfer, store and protect your clients’ private information, many of the electronic commerce platforms used are vulnerable to cyber security breaches: computers, laptops, cell phones and office files.  Security breaches can also happen to platforms owned by other companies, a third party, placing the security breach out of your control, even though you’ll be held responsible.

NASW Risk Retention Group and your local NASW Chapter are proud to announce the availability of a Cyber Liability Insurance Program that solves this risk for you!  We have found that today’s cyber security risks, regulations and concerns are shared by so many social work professionals.  That’s why we now offer increased liability protection designed for today’s world of risk.

What will Cyber Liability Protection do for you?

If someone obtains confidential client information from you without your permission by hacking into your computer system, stealing your laptop or smartphone, or accessing information from a company that may hold your data, you have a breach and you will be held responsible to notify your clients and provide a legal defense to help shield you against the significant costs and penalties associated with a HIPAA/HITECH data breach.  In addition, you may need the services of a computer security expert or identity protection services to prevent an ongoing release of information.  We provide this protection!

NASW Risk Retention Group’s Cyber Liability Insurance has been carefully crafted to protect your needs when a security breach touches your professional activities.  We are proud to announce the coverage and benefits in this Cyber Liability Program are now offered to all NASW members. The best part is that you’re guaranteed to be accepted for the NASW-Endorsed Cyber Liability Insurance coverage.  Not only that, but you have the opportunity to tailor your coverage to suit your particular needs.

Investing in Cyber Liability Insurance protects your assets and your career should such an unexpected and costly risk happen.  It’s so easy to get such protection, affordably, through the NASW Risk Retention Group. It’s hard to find it elsewhere.

And, you can choose to enroll either online at www.naswassurance.org/landing-cyber/, where you’ll see all your options and prices, or, you can call now to enroll by phone:  888-278-0038.
