Understanding Cybersecurity Insurance and How to Choose the Right Coverage

Description

Not all cyber insurance is created equal! Join this session to learn about real-world situations and what type of cyber insurance is right for your organization.

This workshop will walk through the many different coverages available in a cyber insurance policy and discuss the practical implications of each. We'll start with the coverage types, what controls you have in place to prevent an inside, and then go through example claims your nonprofit or business could encounter.

This workshop will help you confidently ask a broker the right questions when it is time to buy or renew cyber insurance.

Some examples that may be discussed:

• Ransomware
• Phishing / Wire Transfer
• Business Email Compromise (BEC)
• Multimedia Liability

The facilitators will outline what a cyber insurance policy should or will cover and what a claim would provide under different circumstances.
