Do identity thieves steal customer information from small businesses?
Yes. In fact small businesses are an attractive target for ID thieves because they frequently do not have the strong data security protections that big businesses have in place. This is all the more reason to develop a strong data security and privacy plan. See Chapter 3 of “Security and Privacy – Made Simpler” for more information on how to develop a security and privacy plan, and Chapter 6 for specific information on how to fight ID theft as a small business owner.
