With small businesses accounting for 43% of cyberattacks annually + an average cost of $25,000 per breach, you can’t afford to kick back and relax.

The good news is you CAN protect your small business’s cyber footprint in 2023 and beyond.

🤔How, you ask? You’ve got to know what you’re up against.

Here are two new threats in 2023:

➡️ AI browser extensions can secretly hack into your team’s accounts, siphoning data unannounced. It’s critical to be vigilant in monitoring extensions - you may even want to provide your team with a list of trusted resources.

➡️ AI tools could lead to collection of company data, with there being clear potential for publicly available tools to collect and leverage confidential company information as part of their generative AI makeup.

That said, strong cyber insurance can help protect your business from financial repercussions in 2023 and beyond. Reach out with any questions 🤝

Did you know that taking your eyes off the road for 5 seconds at 55 mph is like driving a football field blindfolded?

This Distracted Driving Awareness Month, we wanted to share a reminder about the importance of driving without distractions 🚫📱

Here are a few more telling statistics:

📅 In 2022, drivers were on their phones during nearly 58% of trips, up from 54% in 2020.
📵 Although 94% of teens are aware of the dangers of texting and driving, 35% admit to doing it.
😢 Sadly, about 3,000 lives are lost each year due to distracted driving incidents.

Join us in our commitment to safe driving behaviors, and share this important reminder with your network 🚗

🔥🌧️🏠 Property damage can happen unexpectedly. And while you can’t always prevent such incidents, you can prevent further headaches by approaching the claim process appropriately.

With that in mind, here are some general post-property damage guidelines to file away:

1️⃣ Ensure safety, evacuate the premises if needed, and contact authorities for emergencies.

2️⃣ Notify your agent ASAP, and document all conversations with the carrier.

3️⃣ Take photos/videos of damage, and make a list of lost items and their estimated value.

4️⃣ Take reasonable steps to prevent further damage, like placing tarps over leaks or shutting off utilities. Keep receipts/invoices for temporary repairs, lodging, and supplementary costs.

5️⃣ Do not make permanent repairs or dispose of damaged items before consulting with your agent. Ensure cleaners/contractors know what can and cannot be removed from the property.

6️⃣ Be wary of individuals who may be taking advantage of a situation by sweeping into your neighborhood after a catastrophic event. And remember, never pay for services upfront.

We hope you never deal with extensive damage to your property, but we want you all to be armed with knowledge in the event you do.

Feel free to share this post as a helpful resource for your network, and as always, DM us or give the office a call with any questions or needs 🤝

Around the office, we’re divided on how we like to spend a perfect Saturday in the fall.

🏈 Half of us are all about the heart-pounding energy of a college football game—cheering, chanting, and celebrating every touchdown.

🍁 The other half craves the peace and quiet of a leisurely hiking excursion surrounded by nature's colorful landscape and soothing sounds.

So, which team are you on? Join the discussion in the comments, and let's see which side tops the tussle for the ideal autumn adventure.

Following Hurricane Idalia, we want to share our hopes that all of you are safe and sound 💗 If your property sustained damage, know that we’re here to help.

Here are a few initial steps to take:

✔️ Prioritize safety - Leave the property if there are immediate hazards or risks. Do not attempt to survey the damage yourself if it is not safe to do so.
✔️ Document the damage - If it’s safe to do so, take photos or videos of the damage, capturing wide-angle shots and close-ups as evidence for any claims.
✔️ Mitigate further damage - Again – if safe – take reasonable steps to prevent additional damage, such as covering a damaged roof with a tarp. Keep receipts for temporary repairs.
✔️ Give us a call - We can offer clients tailored advice and help facilitate communication with the insurance carrier.

If you have insurance questions or other needs post-storm, don’t hesitate to reach out. Even if you’re not a client, we’re happy to help however we can 🤝

On that note, have you learned something new or taken up a new hobby recently? We’d love to hear about it in the comments 🍎✏️
