WEBINAR - 4 cyber loss scenarios you should use to test and demonstrate the coverage provided under your customers’ cyber insurance policies

  • Wed 05 Jul 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm
    • Neil Park MA MBA FCII

The disappointment of customers and the many policy disputes on business interruption coverage following the pandemic have illustrated that many insureds and some of their brokers did not understand the limitations of property damage/business interruption coverage. Cyber insurance policies are newer, less tested and arguably trickier to understand than property damage/business interruption policies so brokers and insurers must be able to clearly explain to customers the coverage and any limitations to the coverage to prevent similar policy disputes. The best way of doing this is to scenario test the policy wording with potential cyber scenarios so we can understand how the policies may respond.
