Cyber Risks
OVERVIEW
THE NEED
Many organisations believe that their firewalls and anti-virus programs provide them with sufficient protection against cyber risks such as viruses and hacking. The shocking reality is very different every day more than one million people and organisations fall victim to cyber attacks.
Almost every company has some kind of network, database or online presence that puts it at risk. The complexity of the online environment makes it impossible for most businesses to address these risks, or even appreciate how serious the threat is.
The effect of a cyber attack could be devastating to almost any business: network downtime, loss of important data and loss of credibility when customer information is compromised (not to mention the litigation that would follow if the hacker were to use that information to plunder the customer’s bank account).
THE SOLUTION
Camargue’s Cyber Risks policy covers organisations against the risks arising out of operating a computer network. In addition to this,
- It covers liability arising from on-line publishing (such as a website) as well as from traditional media (such as brochures);
- There is an option which provides professional indemnity cover appropriate to companies which participate in developing software and other technology;
- It not only covers the Insured’s liabilities to others, but also provides a form of specialised business interruption cover which covers the Insured’s loss of income arising out of computer down-time
THE COVER
- Technology Professional Services
- Multimedia liability
- Security & privacy liability
- Data recovery & loss of business income
- Privacy regulatory defence & penalties
- Crisis management costs, including customer notification, support & credit monitoring expenses
