    The Power of Cyber Insurance

    One day, as the bustling city of Mumbai went about its business, a silent threat was making its way towards an upcoming clothing brand. A group of cybercriminals managed to breach the brand’s website, gaining access to customer data, including names, addresses, and even some credit card information. Panic ensued when the businessowner discovered the breach. He feared the worst – his customers’ trust shattered, his reputation tarnished, and the financial repercussions that could have brought down his brand.

    Fortunately, having a cyber insurance policy proved crucial. Rapid response from cybersecurity experts was backed by the policy, covering expenses for breach containment, customer notifications, and public relations management. The brand not only weathered the storm but also emerged stronger, showcasing the pivotal role of cyber insurance in safeguarding businesses from modern digital threats.

    Why invest in a Cyber policy?

    Protect Personal Data

    If your business handles a lot of personal data, you might have to comply with data breach laws. Cyber insurance helps with the costs of breaches.

    Technology Dependency

    If your business heavily relies on technology, a disruption could lead to significant operational setbacks. Cyber insurance can mitigate the effects of such technology-related disruptions.

    Board’s Accountability

    With cyber security gaining prominence, board of directors are increasingly responsible for company-wide security. A cyber policy reflects diligent oversight.

    Contractual Obligations

    Many contracts need cyber insurance. It’s must for business relationships.

    Comprehensive Incident Response

    Cyber policies include a ready-made incident response plan, offering access to expert vendors in areas like legal guidance, IT forensics, consumer notification, and public relations.

    Rising Breach Costs

    In 2023, the average cost of a data breach in India reached an all-time high of INR 179 million, marking a nearly 28% increase since 2020. Having a cyber policy can effectively help mitigate these rising expenses.
