Cyber insurance coverage generally falls into two categories: first-party coverage for direct losses to the insured’s business and third-party liability coverage for any losses sustained by others.
Payments for first-party losses cover the cost of:
- Investigations into the crime or accident
- Recovery of data and computer systems
- Lost revenue from the interruption of business
- Required notification and support of affected parties
- Public relations efforts
- Any ransom payments for cyber-extortion
Payments for third-party losses pay for damages, settlements, and the cost of litigation, if needed.
Cyber insurance typically excludes any bodily injury claims, potential loss of future profits, and loss of intellectual property.
