PART 2 of our look at cyber security and the insurance you need to protect your business.

In this episode, we look at what happens if there's a cyber attack and I have to make a claim? What's the process?

Join Dave Ferris (Davelcorp Insurance Brokers) and Luke Iacovelli (UNITECH Solutions) as they dive into the issues around cyber crime and how best to protect your business from cyber attacks.

If your business experiences a cyber attack and you have insurance, then the first step is to contact your insurance broker and they will work with you and your IT support. If you don't have cyber security insurance, you will go straight to your cyber security provider. There is a process to find out what's happened, what damage has been done and what are the next steps.
 
It's important to remember that cyber-risk is just one risk that's inherent in a business.  We recommend that you take a proactive approach to risk management and look at all of your business risks. You need to work with your IT professionals and say, "How can we protect ourselves using your expertise to manage the risks by the way we do our business?"

You need to have your risk management, cyber-risk strategies in place to service your business and then the insurance becomes a simple fallback. You won't get insurance, if you don't have those measures in place anyway. And so the insurance is just a fallback, it's not the solution.

Explore these issues and more and get your business' cyber security on track.
