E&O Cyber Suite Endorsement
43% of all cyberattacks target small businesses1
Cyberthieves check every point of entry. They can open any window or walk through the back door. The worst part? You typically aren't aware until it's too late.
Computers, networks and electronic data are essential to how real estate agents do business. Reliance on digital tools brings serious cyber risks, like hacking and data breaches. Real estate agents are particularly enticing targets for cyber thieves because they maintain personally identifying information about their customers.
One cyberthief shouldn't be allowed to threaten all the time and hard work you've spent building your real estate career. But if your clients' sensitive data is compromised, you can face serious liability claims. Not to mention, a mere 14% of small businesses rate their ability to deal with cyber risks, attacks, and vulnerabilities as "highly effective."1
Now more than ever, getting comprehensive cyber protection in place is critical.
Our E&O Cyber Suite helps your firm recover and respond to cyberattacks. We have nine available coverages to help real estate agents affected by data breaches and cyberattacks.
Cyber Suite Includes:
- Data Compromise Response Expense Coverage provides the resources to respond to a breach of personal information.
- Computer Attack Coverage helps you respond to a computer attack.
- Cyber Extortion Coverage is designed to respond to an extortion threat.
- Misdirected Payment Fraud provides reimbursement for the amount fraudulently obtained from the insured because of a wrongful transfer event.
- Computer Fraud Coverage provides reimbursement for the amount fraudulently obtained from the insured because of a computer fraud event.
- Data Compromise Liability Coverage is designed to provide defense and settlements in the event of a suit related to a breach of personal information.
- Network Security Liability Coverage is designed to provide defense and settlement costs in the event of a suit alleging that a system security failure on the part of the insured caused damage to a third party.
- Electronic Media Liability Coverage is designed to provide defense and settlement costs in the event of a suit alleging that the insured infringed on a copyright or trademark, defamed a person or organization, or violated a person’s right to privacy.
- Identity Recovery Coverage helps provide owners of the insured business with case management service and financial resources to recover control of their identities after an identity theft.
Keep your real estate firm standing tall in the aftermath of a cyberattack.
