Protecting Your Business Beyond The Policy

Cyber Insurance Readiness isn't just about getting covered, it's about proving you're prepared.

Why Cyber Insurance Matters

Cyber threats are no longer a distant possibility, they’re a daily reality. Cyber Insurance offers a financial safety net against against data breaches, ransomware attacks, and IT disruptions. But securing coverage isn’t as simple as ticking a box. Insurers now demand proof of robust cybersecurity practices before granting or renewing policies.

What Insurers Expect

To qualify for comprehensive coverage and avoid inflated premiums, insurers typically require:

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR)
Immutable Backups
Incident Response Plans
Security Awareness Training
Vulnerability Management

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Cyber Insurance and why does my business need it?

Cyber insurance is a specialised policy that protects your business from financial losses caused by cyber incidents such as data breaches, ransomware attacks, and system outages. If your organisation handles sensitive data, relies on digital infrastructure, or operates online services, cyber insurance helps cover costs like legal fees, recovery expenses, and reputational damage. It’s not just a safety net—it’s a strategic layer of protection in today’s threat landscape.

How can I prepare my business to qualify for cyber insurance?

Insurers now require more than a simple questionnaire. To qualify for coverage and avoid inflated premiums, your business should implement key security controls:

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for all remote and privileged access
Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR) across all devices
Immutable Backups with regular restoration testing
Security Awareness Training for all staff
Incident Response Plans that are documented and tested annually
Vulnerability Management with monthly scans and timely patching
These measures not only improve your insurability but also strengthen your overall cyber resilience.

Does having Cyber Essentials certification help with cyber insurance?

Absolutely. Achieving Cyber Essentials or Cyber Essentials Plus certification demonstrates that your business meets baseline security standards recognised by the UK government. Certified organisations are statistically 92% less likely to make a cyber insurance claim, making them more attractive to insurers and often eligible for better coverage terms and lower premiums. It’s a powerful way to show your commitment to cybersecurity and compliance.
