The Hanover Partners With Identity Theft 911

The Hanover Insurance Group, Inc. has partnered with Identity Theft 911, an identity theft management and data-breach response service.

The arrangement will enable The Hanover’s agents to provide their mid-size business customers with protection against data breaches and identity theft at no additional cost.

The Identify Theft 911 offering includes several services that mid-size business customers can use to be proactive about protecting against and mitigating the impact of data breaches, and any subsequent identity theft. These include a 24-hour hotline, which is staffed by experts who can help prepare for and respond to data breaches.

Identity Theft 911 can help avert a crisis when a data breach occurs. Its experts will assess the severity and damage of the breach, advise on regulatory and consumer notification, provide crisis management assistance and create action plans for respondin. Identify Theft 911 can assist with customer-notification letters and, for larger breaches, help design and implement a password-protected Web site to communicate with those who are affected. Services also include conducting computer forensics analysis, information security consulting, incident response damage reviews and digital-evidence preservation.
