What is Cyber Insurance?
Often the most common shortfall for businesses is a lack of suitable cyber security insurance coverage. We find that most businesses underestimate or misunderstand the necessity for a correct level of protection, cyber insurance is not just for IT companies or larger businesses.
In fact, UK small businesses are targeted on average 65,000 times a day with cyber attacks (Source: Hiscox). The smaller infrastructure of these types of organisations make them especially vulnerable, as keeping your databases and servers secure is often left to the internal team in the absence of a dedicated IT department.
As well as the negative effects and inconvenience of having your data breach it can also mean you violate GDPR regulations. As the owner of customer data, it is your responsibility to keep this sensitive information safe. Any breach that leads to the exposure of client information could leave you culpable.
Costs as a result of a cyber breach can vary, however, the average cost of a breach is $3.2 million when all global attacks are equated (source: IBM). Correct cover is therefore essential and can help mitigate the potential costs involved with a cyber-related breach.
