I stopped accepting credit cards for my small business and switched most of my sales to Amazon where they take care of hacking issues and payments. I could have been wiped out from legal fees if my small business web site were hacked and had to spend a lot of time keeping up to date on the exploits. I prevented lots of attacks, in the end, it was too stressful for a relatively small business. I have no idea of how much of my Amazon fees goes to dealing with hacking losses, but they charge me plenty. Same with Paypal.
