Cyber Insurance
Protect Your Business from Online Threats
What is Cyber Insurance?
Cyber Insurance protects your business from data breaches, hacking, ransomware, and other digital threats. It combines cyber liability cover for third-party claims with cyber breach response services to help you recover quickly after an attack.
Whether you’re a freelancer, SME, or large corporation, cyber insurance is essential for protecting sensitive data, maintaining customer trust, and keeping your operations running smoothly.
Our Cyber Insurance includes:
- Cyber Liability – Covers third-party claims for data breaches, privacy violations, or financial loss caused by compromised systems.
- Cyber Breach Response – Provides immediate support to restore systems, secure stolen data, and manage reputational impact.
With legal support, forensic investigation, customer notifications, and identity protection services, cyber insurance helps your business recover quickly and continue operating with confidence.
What does it cover?
- Legal and Forensic Services – Investigations to identify the cause of the breach and secure your systems.
- Data Recovery & Computer Security Failure – Restoring lost, stolen, or corrupted data and covering liability if a virus spreads to clients.
- Third-Party Liability – Compensation for customers or partners affected by the breach.
- Business Interruption – Covers lost income due to system downtime after a cyberattack.
- Customer Notification & Support – Informing affected individuals, plus call centre, credit monitoring, and identity protection services.
Do I need Cyber Insurance?
Cyber insurance isn’t legally required in the UK, but it’s highly recommended for any business that stores customer data or relies on digital systems.
A single cyberattack can cause:
- Severe financial losses
- Operational disruption
- Long-lasting reputational damage
With cybercrime rising, having cyber liability and breach response cover provides crucial peace of mind and keeps your business resilient.
How much does Cyber Insurance cost?
The cost depends on:
- The size and type of your business.
- The volume and sensitivity of data you hold.
- Your cybersecurity measures.
- The level of cover you need.
Policies are often available as standalone or as an add-on to Professional Indemnity Insurance, making it a cost-effective option for small businesses and freelancers.
Typical policies cover legal fees, data recovery, customer notifications, and reputational management after an attack.
