Why cyber insurance?
No matter how robust your IT security protocols are, they cannot prevent human error, and all it takes is for one person to make one mistake.
With businesses increasingly relying on technology to drive core objectives, the risk of losing money and data, or technology being denied or failing due to accidental or malicious interference has never been greater. Business leaders without a well-thought-out strategy around cyber protection are effectively gambling with all their funds to develop their business. Or depending on your cash reserves, your very survival.
