Cyber Risks

Cyber insurance protects companies against risks related to I.T. (information technology) infrastructure and activities. Cyber risk policy indemnifies the company against:

• Legal lawsuit following a breach of private information or defamation
• Expenses incurred to recover data, provide security audit, or post-accident public relations and investigations expenses
• Support for the consequences of an interruption of online activity
• Consultant fees necessary to end any threat of extortion;
• Reimbursement of cyber-ransoms to pay
• Financial compensations for the loss of any data

Cyber Risk insurance is a must have for any business that deals with personal identifiable information i.e. any data that can be used to identify a person as well as any Information Technology related risks.

Cyber-Insurance covers losses arising from internet-based risks and helps organizations to settle the costs involved with the recovery of a cyber-related security breach or similar event.

However like every other insurance, cyber insurance policies also have few exclusions that are important to understand.

• Potential future lost profits
• Loss of value due to theft of your Intellectual Property
• the cost to improve internal technology systems, including any software or security upgrades after a cyber event
