What is Cyber Protection Insurance?
In the digital age, cyber threats are a significant risk for businesses of all sizes. Cyber insurance provides a robust solution to protect your business from the financial and reputational damage caused by cyber incidents. Cyber insurance policies are designed to cover various cyber risks, ensuring your business remains secure and resilient in the face of evolving threats.
What can it cover?
Cyber insurance policies vary in the benefits they provide. Westlawn Insurance Brokers can help you find the most suitable product that meets the needs of your business. Here’s the type of cover that your policy may include:
First party losses
such as business interruption losses, cyber extortion, electronic data replacement
Third party losses
such as security and privacy liability, defence costs, regulatory breach liability, electronic media liability
Extra expenses
such as crisis management expenses, notification and monitoring expenses.
Who should consider it?
If your business has a website or electronic records, you’re vulnerable to cyber hackers. In fact, it’s likely that your business will suffer a cyber-attack at some stage. A cyber-attack could cost your business more than money. It could also threaten your intellectual property and put customers’ personal information at risk – which could damage your reputation.

Cyber Insurance for Business
Case Study
Your employee opens an email attachment infected with a ransomware virus. Access to your systems and data are blocked and the virus software informs you that it will remain unavailable unless you pay the ransom amount. Rather than paying the hacker and opening your business up to further extortion attempts, you hire external IT consultants to recover your back-up data and files and upgrade your antivirus software. Over the week it takes to apply these fixes, you must close your business, causing you to lose revenue. It also affects your reputation with your clients; one of your clients threatens to sue you for the delay which cost them a large amount of money. A Cyber Protection Insurance policy allows you to recover some of the costs you incur during this incident. Depending on your policy, you may be able to make a claim for losses caused by the interruption to your business, the costs of recovering your data and upgrading your software, and ongoing crisis management expenses.
