OTHER BENEFITS
INSTANT INDICATIONS & SIMPLE ONLINE APPLICATION
Instant indications can be obtained on-line by answering 4 simple questions. You can access this here. If all assumptions are satisfied, the indicated price is firm.
UNLIMITED RETROACTIVE COVER
Most data breaches are discovered long after they first occur. Our policy is one of the very few to offer full cover for events that occur prior to the first inception date of the policy, aligning cover with the point when you first discover the breach rather than when it first occurred.
COMPREHENSIVE SOCIAL ENGINEERING COVER
Cyber crime is the fastest growing form of crime in the world yet most cyber policies still don’t cater for phishing scams and telephone hacking amongst others. The policies provide comprehensive crime cover for a wide range of electronic perils that are increasingly threatening the financial resources of today’s businesses.
DOUBLE YOUR SOCIAL ENGINEERING SUB-LIMIT
As an added bonus, social engineering sub-limits are automatically doubled if the Insured uses both internal (eg. user name & password) and external (eg. Google Authenticator or SMS code send to mobile phone) methods for accessing their server (or their cloud hosted environment). This is often referred to as 2FA/DFA (two/dual factor authentication)
EMERGENCY COSTS PROVISION
In the event of a major system failure or data security breach, the last thing the Insured needs to worry about is us. That’s why our incident response partner is able to authorise emergency costs of up to $50,000 with our pre-agreed panel of providers without any need for Underwriters prior written consent.
SUPPLY CHAIN COVERAGE
Cover (damage, restoration and BI) is automatically extended to respond to insured events occurring at the Insured’s cloud provider.
