What is Cyber Security Insurance?

Cyber security insurance or a Cyber liability policy is designed to help protect businesses from the potential effects of cybercrimes such as inadvertent loss or release of customer personal information, cyber-crime, cyber extortion/ransomware, malware and business interruption due to a cyber event.

What does Cyber Security Insurance Cover?

The most prominent cyber risks are privacy risk, security risk, operational risk, and service risk. Generally, cyber insurance is designed to protect your company from these primary risks:

• Network security and privacy liability
• Network business interruption
• Media liability
• Errors and Omissions

Cyber liability insurance can also cover the follow items:

• Cyber extortion – including hiring negotiation professionals, extortion demands or future threats.
• Replacing electronic data– cost of data recovery and replacement
• Security and private liability – data breaches including third party data loss that may damage your business reputation
• Defence costs – legal expenses for defending claims
• Regulatory breach liability – legal costs arising from investigations from government regulators
• Electronic media liability – costs of copyright breaches, claims of defamation and misue of online IP

Who should have Cyber Security Insurance?

Simply put, if you are operating online, or storing and managing customer data online, this insurance is vital for your protection. Organizations that create, store and manage electronic data online, for example, customer contacts, customer sales, as well as credit card numbers must have cyber insurance to protect their sensitive data.
