Under the New York Shield Act, your business may face severe fines that could quickly bury your company in debt. Can you afford fines that reach up to $250,000 for each violation?

New York Aggressively Punishes Those in Violation
Those who violate this law for security failures will face aggressive punishment. Worse, the government plans to increase the fines because the need for ever-improving cybersecurity grows. The United States estimates that 1,001 businesses had a data breach in 2020. Because of less-than-ideal security, 155.8 million people had their confidential information exposed. With a growing number of people on the internet, hackers will see it as increasingly profitable to target businesses, which is why the government requires these increasing cybersecurity standards.
