- Business interruption losses
- Electronic data replacement
- Security and private liability
- Defence costs
- Regulatory breach liability
- Electronic media liability
- Crisis management expenses
- Notification and monitoring expenses
Other things to consider
Depending on your policy, you may be able to make a claim for losses incurred by business interruption caused by cyber-attacks, as well as the costs of recovering your data, upgrading your software, or ongoing crisis management solutions.
