PRESS RELEASE — CHANNEL PARTNERS CONFERENCE & EXPO — April 10, 2019 — EZShield (Booth 976 and a Featured Sponsor), 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.”
