What are some of the risks?

Cyber attacks occur every minute of every day in every industry. Key exposures that businesses encounter are:

• Accidental data breach (lost laptop)
• Business Interruption (no access to systems or data)
• Network Security Breach (hacking)
• Network Extortion (Malware)
• Fraudulent Funds Transfer (Social Engineering)

Why get coverage?

Some of the key reasons to carry Cyber insurance coverage are:

1. Technology & computer systems are now used in all industries and operations
2. Regulatory Requirements are expanding + US and EU regulations are borderless
3. Access to Incident Response Team & Legal Services is included in the policy limit
4. Cyber Exclusions may exist within other insurance policies (i.e. Errors & Omissions, Directors & Officers, CGL)
5. Reputational harm mitigation

Our CPM – Cyber, Privacy & Media is a policy that has been designed with the future very much in mind. It is a modular policy which allows companies to tailor the cyber, privacy and media cover they buy to the risks they face. Coverages include:
 

• Cyber liability, privacy liability and first and third party privacy breach notification costs
• Comprehensive cyber crime cover including phishing scams, telephone hacking, identity theft, wire fraud and cyber extortion
