Be prepared against cyber attacks

In the past 4 weeks, we have covered multiple cyber security exposures that are common to law firms, including:

We have also covered how to minimize the risk associated with them.

However, they all have one thing in common…a human element, which is almost impossible to safeguard 100%.  About half of all data breaches happen due to some type of human error.

This is why we recommend purchasing cyber liability insurance.

Cyber liability insurance provides a combination of coverage options and services to help protect businesses against data breaches and other cyber events as well as help to recover quickly if an attack does take place.

This insurance can help cover the costs associated with an attack or breach, such as:

  • Lost income due to cyber event
  • Customer notification 
  • Data recovery
  • Damaged computer repair
  • And more!

Law firms use multiple types of technology that face cyber risk.  As this tech becomes more complex, so does the risk that comes with it.  This is why every business should be prepared with a cyber security plan/training as well as cyber liability insurance to help mitigate the risk.
