Ontario Commercial Cyber Insurance

Times are rapidly changing and how we communicate and do business has too. This has brought on new risks and liability exposures that seemed unimaginable a few decades ago. Claims and the legal expenses to cover insured losses from, Privacy Breach, Copyright Infringement and Errors and Omissions are on the rise.

Cyber liability insurance helps to protect an association, business or individual from the negative impact and costs of a breach, theft or unauthorized disclosure in an electronic format of another party’s personal information.  Any business, no matter how small or large, can be a victim of cyber crime or have a cyber breach.

Possession of any party’s personal information such as phone numbers, credit card details, dates of birth to name a few must be safeguarded.  A lost or stolen laptop containing a vendor or customer’s information, or a virtual thief from the other side of the world who is hacking into a computer, phishing scams or ransomware are examples of negative events that are occurring daily.  Standard property and liability policies exclude damage and liability from these kinds of events.   Specialty policies offer coverage that can be customized to fit the needs of an organization.

Our brokerage represents specialty insurers that provide many of the unique coverages required by those in cyber and computer-type fields including Software Developers, Network Support, IT Consultants, Website Developers, Graphic Designers, Media and Advertising firms.
