General Liability: bodily injury & property damage E&O policies: failure of defined services Commercial Property Insurance: tangible property Crime policies: money, securities, or tangible property Kidnap and Ransom: extortion coverage

Co. v. Midwest Computers & More, 147 F.Supp2d 1113 (W.D. Okla. 2001):Courts now generally find that PII data does not amount to “tangible property” because computer information lacks physical substance Stellenwork v.

  21. Cyber Liability Insurance Today: Companies Buying? “We have a firewall, so we are protected.” “We have antivirus protection, so we are not at risk.” “We have the best IT department.” “Why would our organization be a target?” “We don’t have an e-commerce website, so we are not at risk.” “We are compliant with PCI, HIPAA, GLBA, etc., so we are not at risk.” “No one else is buying this coverage… why should we?” “Privacy and Security exposures apply solely to retailers, healthcare, education, consulting, data processors, data storage, hospitality, entertainment/gaming and financial institutions.” “Our discretionary budget has been eliminated in this down economy.”

How Cyber Coverage Can Help • Comprehensive Third & First Party Coverage • Security & Privacy Liability (3rd Party) • Event Management (1st Party) • Cyber Extortion (1st Party) • Network Interruption (1st Party) • Flexible ‘Coverage Section’ Approach Allows Insured’s to Customize Coverage Components Coverage Can Be Combined with E&0, Media, and Corporate Counsel Coverages or Offered Standalone Flexible Coverage Sublimits to Meet the Specific Needs of an Individual Insured

  24. Security & Privacy • Security & Privacy Insurance responds to important third party liability for claims arising from: • A failure of the insured’s network security • A failure to protect personally identifiable information including disclosures as a result of social engineering attacks (e.g., phishing) • Violation of any federal, state or local privacy statute alleged in connection with failure to protect confidential information • Duty-to-Defend coverage • Broad definition of “confidential information” and “computer system” • Coverage extends to information held by “Information Holders” • Endorsement available for regulatory fines/penalties and PCI assessments
