Technology in business has come a long way in recent times. With it has come an increase in the technology risks that businesses now face. Cyber attacks increasingly making headlines with well known companies becoming victims. Government figures from 2011 estimate the cost of cyber crime to the UK economy at £27 billion a year - £21 billion being to business. Many existing insurance policies don't protect against cyber crime losses.
But now there is a solution. Our cyber, privacy and media insurance is designed to complement the professional indemnity policy. The policy has been tailored to suit professionals that rely on the use of technology in the everyday running of the firm. These may include the risks the business may face by:
