Cyber Liability Insurance
Safeguard your business against the growing risk of cybercrime.
Bolster your Cyber Security
From malware to ransomware and extortion, it is all too easy to fall victim to cybercrime in this day and age. With one wrong click of a button, or by letting your bank details fall into the wrong hands, the security and privacy of your company information could be compromised. Small businesses are particularly attractive targets for cybercriminals at present, with obtaining personal data a recurrent goal. Working from home has only made this type of attack even more prevalent as cyber criminals see reduced procedures and security as a huge opportunity to gain access to information.
Standard Business Liability Insurance is unlikely to cover cyber risks. From a stolen or lost laptop to a hacked account, the smallest data breach can lead to compromised personal data, monetary losses and legal liabilities. NC Insurance will analyse your needs and help you make the right decisions to get you the cover you need to get back up and running as quickly as possible following an attack.
- Data breaches
- Business interruption
- Ransomware
- Cyber extortion

Should your business be targeted by cybercriminals and public data is leaked, the media backlash arising from this could significantly tarnish the reputation of your business. Cyber insurance includes cover to aid you in upholding the reputation of your company, including expert PR and crisis management support.
