ESCO Offers Cyber Security Insurance to Protect Hearing Healthcare Businesses from Digital Threats

ESCO, a trusted name in hearing device protection since 1989, is now extending its expertise to cyber security insurance. With the increasing frequency of cyber attacks, ESCO’s new insurance solutions are designed to offer comprehensive protection for hearing healthcare business owners.

The Growing Need for Cyber Security

In today’s digital age, the threat of cyber attacks is more prevalent than ever. Jim Guthier, owner of ESCO, explains, “We saw a 72% increase in data breaches from 2021 to 2023, affecting more than 343 million victims. If you have a business that collects consumer data, handles accounts payable and receivable, or maintains a website, you are at risk and need cyber security coverage.”

What ESCO’s Cyber Security Insurance Covers

ESCO’s cyber security insurance offers protection against a range of technology-related losses, including:

• Phishing or ransomware attacks
• Lost or stolen laptops containing sensitive information

These types of incidents can cause significant financial damage and disrupt business operations. With ESCO’s insurance, businesses can rest assured that they are protected against these risks.

A Partnership with AmTrust Financial Services

Through a strategic partnership with AmTrust Financial Services, ESCO’s cyber security insurance is part of broader insurance solutions that also include:

• Property and liability coverage to protect against theft, fire, and unexpected accidents
• Workers’ compensation insurance for medical costs, disability benefits, and work-related injury legal fees

Each of these solutions is available separately, ensuring that business owners can choose the coverage that best fits their needs.
