Embroker helps you get cyber liability insurance to cover both first and third-party financial losses resulting from data breaches and other cybercrimes that may compromise sensitive company and customer information. A cyber insurance policy, also referred to as “cyber risk insurance” or “cyber liability insurance” coverage, is a financial product that enables businesses to transfer the costs involved with recovery from a cyber-related security breach or similar events. Typically, the most important aspect of cyber insurance will be network security coverage. This coverage will respond in the event of a network security failure – such as data breaches, malware, ransomware attacks and business account, and email compromises. However, the policy will also respond to liability claims and ancillary expenses of an attack or breach.

Cyber Liability Insurance is a must if you keep your client data on your computer, your cell phone, or your office files. Even if you use a third-party company, such as a warehouse, a mover, or data storage provider, you can be held responsible for data breaches caused by them. A cyber liability policy safeguards you and your practice. Plus, policyholders can add an Optional First Party Breach Endorsement – additional coverage for client data breaches caused directly by you or your office staff. The additional premium for this optional coverage starts at $20 per year for NASW members. It covers your office workers of these classes: secretary, receptionist, and administrative clerical worker. The Optional First Party Breach Endorsement is highly recommended if you would like additional coverage support for any current HIPAA coverage held on an NASW RRG professionals liability insurance policy.
