What does it cover?
Customers or employees who entrust you with personal or private information such as names, addresses, social security numbers, credit card numbers and medical info, etc. put you at risk for violation of privacy laws or data breach. Privacy losses arise from computers (laptop theft, hackers, viruses) and from paper files (office and at home).
Cyber liability insurance is designed to cover you and your business for losses arising from data security breaches to your system as well as media exposures on your website – defamation, libel, slander, infliction of emotional distress, infringement of copyright and trademark, logo, plagiarism, etc. This insurance covers claims brought by outsiders as well as costs you incur for notifying people of the breach, credit monitoring, public relations, etc. Actual policy wording varies greatly.
Is it required?
Cyber & privacy liability insurance is relatively new and not a generally “required” coverage. However, depending on the nature of your business, investors or customers may require that you carry cyber liability insurance.
What doesn't it cover?
All insurance policies have coverage exclusions. Here are a few things that cyber liability insurance policies may not cover: Errors & Omissions (malpractice) and/or privacy violations related to any professional services provided unless specifically insured; corporate identity theft unless specifically insured. It is critical to review and understand all proposed policy exclusions before purchasing any cyber liability policy.
