Cyber Liability

What is Cyber Insurance?

Cyber insurance covers your business' liability for a data breach that includes sensitive customer information. This could include things like Social Security numbers, credit card numbers, account numbers, driver's license numbers and even medical records.

It's not a matter of IF, it's a matter of WHEN.

Most E&O policies do not cover data breaches, and most cyber endorsements do not adequately address the exposures of an insurance agent. To avoid damage to your agency's finances and reputation, a solid privacy and data breach policy is increasingly critical.

Cyber crime is a real threat to agencies and their customers. Data breach is not just about cyber security—hackers, portable devices, and stolen laptops. It includes indiscretions and negligent disclosures that can occur within your agency and lead to a breach.

BEAZLEY BREACH RESPONSE POLICY FOR CYBER LIABILITY

A full 80 percent of businesses that experience a data breach do not recover.

Cyber attacks have increased significantly since 2009. Data breaches are extremely common among smaller businesses. Data held by small business is considered low hanging fruit for hackers because they know small businesses lack security resources.

As part of our continuing effort to serve our members, we offer a slot-rated Data Breach Program for MEMBERS ONLY for stand-alone coverage through Beazley.
