CYBER INSURANCE
Cyber insurance provides financial safeguards for businesses against modern digital risks like data breaches, hacking incidents, and malicious cyber attacks targeting computer systems and networks.
Cyber-attacks are the fastest-growing threat to modern businesses, with billions of attempts by hackers every year. As organisations rely on IT systems to manage most, if not all, of their critical business systems, our insurance policies adequately protect your IT infrastructure against loss or damage as a result of a successful hack.
Our policies are aimed at two distinct market sectors: innovative and bespoke solutions for global/multi-national entities; and comprehensive, turnkey solutions for retail brokers, insurers and managing general underwriters. With direct access to the underwriters, your core business operations and threats to them can be properly addressed in the resulting solution.
The Canopius Cyber Team comprises nearly 40 specialist and dedicated in-house Cyber professionals who work collaboratively to ensure holistic strength in risk assessment and cyber risk management, building the perfect insurance solution for your business.
