CYBER LIABILITY INSURANCE

Protect Your Business from Digital Threats

As technology continues to advance, the risk of cyber attacks and data breaches increases. As a business owner, it’s important to protect yourself and your company from the financial consequences of a cyber incident. That’s where cyber liability insurance comes in.

What is Cyber Liability Insurance?

Cyber liability insurance is a type of insurance that covers a business for losses resulting from a data breach or cyber attack. This can include expenses such as legal fees, credit monitoring for affected customers, and public relations efforts to repair damage to your business’s reputation.

Types of Coverage

  • First-party coverage: This type of coverage helps pay for expenses related to a data breach, such as notification costs, credit monitoring, and legal fees.
  • Third-party coverage: This type of coverage helps pay for expenses related to a lawsuit, such as defense costs and settlements.
  • Cyber extortion coverage: This type of coverage helps pay for expenses related to a cyber extortion attempt, such as ransom payments.

Who Needs Cyber Liability Insurance?

Any business that stores, processes, or transmits sensitive information, such as personal information of customers or employees, should consider purchasing cyber liability insurance.

Businesses in industries with strict data regulations, such as healthcare and finance, are at a higher risk of a data breach and may want to consider purchasing cyber liability insurance.

All industries can benefit from Cyber Insurance. It not only protects your business, but it also protects your peace of mind. Common industries that need cyber insurance include:

  • Retail Businesses

  • Service Providers

  • Construction Companies

  • Food & Hospitality Businesses

  • Transportation Companies

  • Technology Companies

  • Wholesale & Distribution Businesses

  • Manufacturing Companies

  • Professional Service Firms

  • And More!

It’s always good to have insurance in case of accidents, even if it isn’t required contractually.

Why is it Needed?

  • The cost of a data breach can be significant, and can include expenses such as legal fees, credit monitoring, and public relations efforts to repair damage to your business’s reputation.
  • Cyber liability insurance can help protect your business from these costs, allowing you to focus on recovering from a data breach instead of worrying about the financial consequences.

How much does it cost?

The cost of cyber liability insurance can vary depending on a number of factors, such as the size of your business, the industry you’re in, and the level of coverage you need. On average, small businesses can expect to pay between $500 and $3,000 per year for cyber liability insurance for new businesses.

Basic Coverages

  • General Liability (GL): often referred to as business liability insurance, is coverage that can protect you from a variety of claims including bodily injury, property damage, personal injury and others that can arise from your business operations. Typically needed before a contractor can begin work on a job
  • Commercial Auto: Commercial auto insurance is liability and physical damage protection for vehicles, such as cars, trucks and vans, that are used for business. Commercial vehicles require a separate policy because they’re typically exposed to more risk than personal vehicles. You have the choice to cover attached equipment such as ladder racks and permanently attached tool boxes. Individual tools and materials usually aren’t covered under this policy.

Other coverages contractors might need

  • Business Owners Policy (BOP): Packages contractors liability and coverage for personal property and commercial buildings into one policy.
  • Workers’ Compensation: Protects if your employees become ill or injured while at work.
