What is Cyber Liability Insurance?
Cyber Liability Insurance provides coverage that protects your company against cybercrimes and events such as data breaches and other cyber security issues. Every business is vulnerable to cyber security breaches which can compromise customer privacy, disrupt operations or even hold your financials “hostage” until certain demands are met. P.D. Foster Insurance’s Cyber Liability Insurance mitigates the risk posed by cybercriminals.
Why You Need Cyber Liability Insurance
Every organization that uses technology, no matter how big or small can be targeted by cybercriminals. The more complex technology becomes, the more sophisticated criminals become at using technology to commit crimes. They pose a true threat to your business and your customers, and you have an obligation to protect both.
An effective cyber security plan is only the first step to protecting your company against cybercrimes. You also need Cyber Liability Insurance to cover the costs associated with cyber breaches as well as potential liability claims made by suppliers or customers when their information is compromised.
What coverage does Cyber Liability Insurance provide?
P.D. Foster Insurance offers comprehensive Cyber Liability coverage that includes:
- Privacy Liability: This covers incidents of data breaches where private information is accessed by unauthorized parties. It also covers liability related to failure to comply with your own publicly stated privacy policy and/or to notify those impacted by a breach in a timely manner. The cost of privacy notifications following an event is often covered, depending on the policy.
- Conduit Liability: Coverage includes damages resulting from a system security failure or the impact caused if the system is impaired or unavailable.
- Impaired-Access Liability: This is specific to situations where a customer or other party who is entitled to access your data suffers losses when data is either impaired or unavailable due to security issues.
- Privacy Regulatory Action Coverage: In the case where your company is found to have failed to comply with regulations, this coverage provides funds for defence costs as well as fines or penalties against you.
- Crisis Management: The costs of managing a crisis event can be quite extensive from public relations costs to business interruptions, and from ransom payments to e vandalism incidents. This coverage helps cover these expenses.
