CYBER INSURANCE
Cyber security is a growing concern for businesses. Protecting all elements of your IT infrastructure such as – hardware, software, networks and facilities against a cyber event is a business risk worth mitigating.
With the increasing severity and frequency of breaches, the need for cyber insurance is growing.
It doesn’t matter what the size of your business is. Handling customer or transaction data, you run the risk that a data breach could give rise to a material financial cost to your business or significant costs relating to third party claims.
Every day, virtually all companies in Australia handle electronic data containing sensitive information about their clients as well as corporate information about their own company. All are faced with real liabilities if data falls into the wrong hands or enters the public domain accidently or fraudulently.
Cyber crime has many faces and is the growing scourge of commerce worldwide. From hackers who seize and hold your data for ransom to denial of service attacks; inadvertent or negligent breaches of client data; websites not being accessible, leading to loss of reputation… the outcomes of a cyber security incident can have a significant impact on the finances and reputation of a business.
