Protection against the digital threats of our time — from hacker attacks and data loss to business interruption caused by cyber incidents.
Cyber insurance protects your company against the financial consequences of cyber attacks, data protection breaches and IT security incidents. It covers both your own losses and third-party losses and, if needed, provides immediate support from IT forensics experts, lawyers and crisis consultants. In an increasingly digital business world, it is one of the fastest-growing lines of insurance.
Digitalisation brings enormous opportunities — but also new risks that traditional insurance does not cover:
Cover for damage caused by ransomware, viruses, trojans and targeted cyber attacks on your IT systems.
Costs of recovering lost or damaged data after a cyber incident.
Expert work to analyse the attack, identify the vulnerability and secure evidence.
Replacement of lost profit and fixed costs if your business comes to a standstill due to an IT incident.
Costs of notifying affected persons, legal advice and possible fines after GDPR breaches.
PR advice, crisis communication and reputation management after an incident has become public.
Every business that uses digital systems is potentially at risk. Cyber insurance is particularly relevant for:
Yes, many tariffs cover both the costs of IT forensics and system recovery and the resulting business interruption loss.
Yes — cyber attacks increasingly affect small and medium-sized businesses too, which often have fewer IT security resources of their own.
Some tariffs provide support here, but legally and in insurance terms it is a special case — we will gladly discuss it with you in detail.
Cyber insurance supports you in notifying affected persons, with legal consequential costs (e.g. GDPR proceedings) and with restoring your systems.
Most insurers require a minimum level of IT security (firewall, backups, up-to-date software). We help you meet the requirements of the chosen insurer.
