Cyber and data security insurance

Businesses frequently believe they are secure from cyber-threats - but unfortunately no business is completely safe from cyber-attacks and data breaches. Even institutions with advanced cyber defence systems fall victim to attacks, with disruptive, costly and potentially long-term consequences. As a result, it is important to take care in recommending cyber and data security insurance to clients, as traditional insurance coverage often does not provide adequate protection.

All sizes of business are at risk of cyber-threats and data breaches. The repercussions of a cyber-attack can include litigation, damage to reputation and in some cases replacement of IT systems. Specifically designed to protect clients and their businesses, we present our newly released comprehensive, standalone cyber and data security insurance policy.
