CyberRisk Liability

CyberRisk Liability

Statistics show virtually every business has been or is susceptible to being hacked. It can happen in a variety of ways and cost a lot of money to address.  Cyber protection insures for claims arising out of unauthorized access to data, failure to notify customers if you are breached, and failure to comply with privacy laws. Both Liability suits and your direct costs can be covered. Here are a few scenarios. In all examples, the policy pays for Damages and Defense Costs for covered lawsuits and your Direct Costs. We can help you understand what the risks are for you.
