Cyber insurance
Attacks, data leaks, outages: preparing the business for an IT incident.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions
My business is small. Is it worthwhile?
Small organisations are often less well protected and therefore exposed. Whether it is worthwhile depends on how much you rely on IT and on the data you process.
The insurer is asking for security measures. Is that normal?
Yes. Insurers frequently make cover conditional on basic measures. It is important to answer the questionnaire accurately.
Does the insurer pay the ransom?
Practices vary between insurers and depending on the legal framework. We read the conditions with you rather than generalising.
Is fraud by fake email covered?
It may be, often with specific limits. It is a point to check explicitly.
Do you handle IT security?
No, that is not our field. We work with your IT provider to align security measures and insurance.
