1a. The Solutions are deployed to all Endpoints in accordance with the Documentation and all Endpoints are currently active and properly configured;

  • iii. There are no Pending Action requests (such as Reboot request or a request for a representative of the Company to leave their computer on overnight for maintenance) sent to a representative of the company and unresolved in over 48 hours on any covered Endpoint.  Specifically, a Seventh Wall team member has identified an issue and requested assistance from the Company to mitigate the issue, and that assistance has not been given for over 48 hours.

1d. Multi-Factor Authentication is enabled and in use for all users and all providers holding company data and/or Intellectual Property (“IP”) and/or Personally Identifiable Information (“PII”) and/or other sensitive information.  Including, but not limited to Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, QuickBooks, etc.

1e. Seventh Wall is given full global admin access to your Microsoft 365 and/or Google Workspace instance and has added the backup process to these cloud storage systems and this process has been allowed to run successfully.

1f. Operating systems follow the requirements below:

  • i. The Warranty applies to current (not Legacy or End-of-Life) Windows and Mac Agents, and on supported versions of Windows and Mac.  Supported versions of Windows and Mac devices are determined and published by their respective manufacturers Microsoft and Apple.
  • ii. Operating system is fully updated and patched for security updates on each covered Endpoint, and all applications are updated to latest releases.

1g. The Company adheres to the following manual actions post infection (i.e., upon discovery of Ransomware):

  • i.  immediately (no more than 30 minutes after discovery) turns off infected computers and unplugs their power cords.
  • ii. immediately (no more than 2 hours after discovery) notifies Seventh Wall by calling our main number listed on our contact page and chooses “emergency” from the business support phone options.

2.  Benefits of the Warranty.

Subject to the terms of this Warranty Agreement, including the specific requirements of Section 1 above, in case of a successful ransomware attack on one or more of the Company Endpoints covered by the Warranty, as shown in Seventh Wall’s logs and other records (a “Breach”), Seventh Wall will provide two services (listed below as ‘2a’ and ‘2b’) at no cost to the Company up to $3,600 in Seventh Wall employee Labor per Endpoint affected by a Breach, and is further capped at the total listed on the specific plan chosen by the Company (typically $2,000,000 USD or $1,000,000 USD) in Labor aggregate for all Endpoints.  Seventh Wall’s Incident Response Labor rate is $300/hour.
(2a) Repair the covered, infected system(s) functionality.
(2b) Recover business data backed up by the Seventh Wall managed backup agent.

3. Condition Precedent to Warranty Labor Coverage.

Seventh Wall shall only provide the remedy for the Breach of the Warranty as described above if (i) the Ransomware attack has occurred, is discovered by the Company and reported to Seventh Wall during the Warranty Term and Company’s subscription to the Solutions under the Terms; (ii) Company’s Endpoints, Solutions, and response to Seventh Wall are in accordance with Section 1 above; (iii) the Company demands in writing to recover for damages caused by the Breach.

4. Exclusions.

The Warranty shall not apply to a Breach caused primarily by (i) any deployment, configuration and/or use of the Solutions (or a portion thereof), for any or no reason, in a manner inconsistent with the Documentation or the requirements of Section 1 herein;(ii) Company’s negligence or misconduct; or (iii) other products and/or services which directly or indirectly cause the malfunction or non-performance of the Solutions with respect to the subject Ransomware. Furthermore, if Seventh Wall identifies a security risk in the Company and request authorization and/or funds to repair, replace or mitigate the issue, but are not given authorization and sufficient funds to fully mitigate the security risk, then the Company forfeits the benefits of this Warranty if a Breach results. Also, any Endpoint, infrastructure, software, local data set, cloud data set, or other system component exists that Seventh Wall is not made aware of, and which when unprotected by the Solutions causes a Breach, then this Warranty is void as to that incident.  This Warranty only applies to systems and system tools or components managed by the Seventh Wall team and tools. As an example of a system tool not managed by Seventh Wall rendering the Warranty inapplicable is the use of Salesforce to store data, and which when breached through a Ransomware attack causes loss of Company data in Salesforce, this Warranty does not cover any costs, labor or other, associated with losses of Salesforce data or lack of Salesforce usability. Also, this warranty only covers Seventh Wall employee Labor.  If an insurance company uses another party to perform the remediation efforts, this Warranty does not cover their labor or expenses.  However, in this scenario, any Labor performed by the Seventh Wall Team to assist the 3rd party in the remediation effort to remediate the covered items above is included.
