Cyber Insurance

Cyber insurance for the financial and operational consequences of a digital incident.

Cyber incidents can interrupt operations, compromise data, trigger liability and create significant recovery costs.

Cyber insurance can help organisations respond to and recover from specified events.

Overview

Protection for a fast-growing exposure

Every business that holds data, uses digital systems or processes payments carries cyber risk — regardless of size or industry.

Cyber insurance is designed to help organisations manage both the immediate response to an incident and its longer-term financial consequences.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need cyber insurance if my business is small? +
Yes — smaller businesses are often targeted precisely because they have weaker defences. Data and financial exposure isn't limited to large companies.
What security measures do I need before I can get cover? +
This varies by insurer, but multi-factor authentication, regular backups and basic endpoint protection are increasingly baseline requirements.
Does cyber insurance cover ransomware payments? +
Some policies include cyber extortion cover, which can include ransom negotiation and payment support — this varies significantly by insurer and should be confirmed explicitly.
