What is Cyber Liability insurance?

Cyber Liability insurance is specially designed to tackle the problems associated with your computer systems, websites and emails. These issues can extend from your misuse of material, through mis-handling of data to loss and damage caused by viruses or hacking.

Not only do we provide practical support to help you deal with the immediate situation but also help with costs associated with advertising and customer contact to reinstate any loss to reputation.

Do I need it?

In this modern world it seems almost impossible to run a business without using computers in some way or another but what happens when something goes wrong?

We all know of the constant battle against computer viruses so imagine how easy it would be for you to be targeted by one which you then inadvertently transfer via your email or website to customers or other businesses.

Employees are carefully chosen but even the best of them can have a bad day and can share some inappropriate comments about a customer or competitor or send an email with confidential information to the wrong person.

And then there are hackers who will, for fun or money, choose to hack your site causing damage or total loss, changing content or leaving inappropriate pop ups. It's happened to thousands of businesses, small to large, including the NHS and it can certainly happen to you.

So, if your business has a website, stores electronic data or uses email to correspond then you should consider this protection.

Having a comprehensive policy in place provides you with peace of mind, meaning that if the worst does happen, the best are there to help.


Policy Features

  • Your policy provides coverage for the following:
    • - your business has its website or systems hacked causing loss or damage
    • - there is any security breach
    • - you have unintentionally included copyrighted or intellectual property on your website
    • - a customer or competitor claims you have made defamatory comments about them on your site or in an email
    • - there is mis-appropriation or misuse of confidential information
    • - you inadvertently spread a virus to customers or other businesses
    • - a hacker uses your electronic identity for the purpose of fraud
    • - your business reputation is damaged due to any of the above
  • Coverage does not include work overseas

Jargon Busting

  • Cyber extortion: a demand for money or something else of value in exchange for not carrying out a threat to commit harm to computer systems
  • Computer system: your own computer network, including any third party software programs and portable media or computer devices
  • Hacker: anyone who specifically targets you and gains access to your website via the internet or other external electronic link, solely by electronically circumventing the security systems in place to protect against such access
  • Infringement: any actual or alleged unauthorised use or violation
  • Intellectual property: any intellectual property, including a trademark (including collective or service mark), a certification mark, trade name, trade dress, trade secret, copyright or passing off or link to or framing of another page. However, this does not apply to any domestic or foreign patent or patent-related rights
  • Breach of privacy: any computer-related unauthorized collection, use or disclosure of non-public personal information as established by law
  • Programme: a set of instructions written in a computer language that tells a computer how to process data or interact with ancillary equipment
  • Security: breach any actual or alleged failure to prevent unauthorised access to or use of any computer, software, network or electronic information system
  • Virus: programmes that are secretly introduced without your permission or knowledge including but not limited to malware, worms, trojans, rootkits, spyware, dishonest adware, crimeware and other malicious unwanted software
  • Website: any website(s) where you have full control over the content and which you operate for the promotion of your business. Also includes its domain name, metatags and hyperlinks and the marketing and advertising of your business contained therein

How much will it cost?

The cost for Cyber and Data liability is as little as €40 per year or €3.33 per month plus tax. When you think that's about the same as a cup of coffee each month to keep your business safe from malicious attack, then it's worth every penny.

You are also able to choose the cover level to suit your needs

€15,000      €40 + tax

€25,000      €75 + tax

€50,000      €120 + tax

Frequently asked questions

General and Quotes

Can I pay monthly?

Again, two options here:

1.      If you are obtaining a new insurance policy with Cyber & Data Liability add-on, you will be able to choose payment by monthly instalments.

2.      If you want to add this cover mid-term, you will be required to pay the whole amount of the add-on product.


Policy and Coverage

Someone hacked into my website/social media page/email and posted a statement about a client/competitor which I believe harms their reputation. Am I covered?

Yes. With this policy in place we will be able to indemnify you in such an unfortunate scenario. The appropriate level of cover will also provide you with compensation for the advertising costs aimed to restore your reputation following such a claim.

If you have received a notification for a claim, please get in touch as soon as possible.

Does this cover protect me against computer viruses?

Short answer, yes.

Long answer, if you happen to transfer a computer virus to someone with whom you do business OR if a hacker attack was specifically targeted at you, we will pay you the necessary costs and expenses for the damages you incurred.

I deal with clients abroad, what if one of them makes a claim against me which is covered under this policy?

This policy would not cover any claims, including arbitration, brought outside of United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland, Channel Islands or Isle of Man.


Changes, Cancellation and Renewal

Can I add Cyber Liability to my existing policy?

Yes, you can add this additional protection to your existing policy at any time during the period of cover.  We refer to this as a 'mid-term' adjustment.

Simply contact us by phone or email and we will arrange this with you.

Can I cancel the Cyber Liability cover?

Once you have added an additional area of cover to your policy, it cannot be cancelled during the term of the policy.  However, when your policy becomes due for renewal you can remove it from the coverage that you require for the following year's policy.
