When Will I Need Cyber Liability Insurance?

Practically all businesses in this day and age have a digital footprint of some kind. And, with the significant increase in remote work, most commercial enterprises have seen their use of technology increase significantly.

The ability to digitize operations has been instrumental in the growth of the U.S. economy and individual businesses. If you are one of them, then you probably know how important it is to keep your data and digital operations secure. Still, there’s always a chance that networks could crash, data could disappear, errors could occur or cyber thieves strike.

When problems like these arise, challenges might not only impact your business, but also your customers. One crucial portion of your commercial insurance that can come to your aid under these circumstances will be cyber liability insurance. Make sure this benefit is part of your insurance package when you buy your coverage.

Understanding Cyber Liability Insurance

Consider some of the sensitive information that you might store on computer networks:

  • HR records and employee information. person in black long sleeve shirt using macbook pro
  • Customer information (names, addresses, birth dates, social security numbers).
  • Tax information.
  • Credit card or bank information of clients and the business.

If this or any other type of data were to fall into the wrong hands, a significant problem might arise. And even though you might think that you have strong network security, cyber thieves are coming up with new methods of attack every day. Your business must be ready for anything, and it’s cyber liability insurance that can provide the solution.

When Can Your Policy Help You

The reason you buy cyber liability insurance is because it can help your business take responsibility for losses caused by data breaches or losses on their networks. The coverage might help following:

  • Virus & malware invasions
  • Hacks
  • Ransomware invasions
  • Online extortion scams

All policies vary, and they will exclude certain losses, too. Additionally, the physical loss of data hardware in a covered event is usually covered under commercial property insurance, rather than cyber liability insurance.

What Happens When a Claim Occurs

When you file a claim against your cyber liability coverage, your plan will often help you cover numerous costs, including:

  • Costs of notifying those affected by the breach
  • Identity recovery and monitoring
  • Regulatory fees
  • Data restoration or recreation
  • Credit monitoring
  • System repairs and upgrades
  • Public relations services
  • Business interruption costs

At the end of the day, the cyber theft was likely beyond your control. Your cyber liability policy can help you restore the business to full capacity with as little threat to your bottom line as possible.

In the event of data theft or cyber hacks, immediately call your cyber liability insurance provider. They can help you determine the best way to proceed with the claim. A quick response on your part can help you minimize the damage.
