A typical Cyber Liability policy can include a range of protections for your business, particularly in the face of Cyber Crime Coverage. This may encompass: First-Party Coverage, which addresses your business’s losses through data recovery and system restoration, business interruption, and income loss. Additionally, it can cover ransomware payments when insurable by law, as well as crisis management and PR services, alongside breach notification and customer support. Furthermore, many Cyber Liability Policies also feature Third-Party Coverage, which protects against claims made against you. This includes legal defense costs, settlements and judgments, regulatory defense, fines, and network security and privacy liability, all crucial in today’s landscape of rising Business Email Compromise incidents.

Cyber Crime Coverage for Insurance Agencies

Cyber Crime Coverage is essential for protecting your agency against prevalent and costly forms of fraud, including Business Email Compromise schemes that exploit trust and everyday operations. Furthermore, having comprehensive Cyber Liability Policies in place enhances your defense against such deceptive tactics.

Common Cyber Crime Scenarios in Insurance Agencies:

Funds Transfer Fraud: A hacker gains access to your agency’s email system, posing as a carrier or client and requesting wire transfers for a fraudulent insurance premium or settlement payout. This kind of scam often falls under the broader umbrella of Business Email Compromise, where trust is exploited for financial gain. 


Social Engineering Scams: An employee is tricked into transferring client funds or releasing sensitive information to someone impersonating a trusted contact—like a carrier rep or agency principal. Such scams highlight the importance of having strong Cyber Crime Coverage as part of your Cyber Liability Policies.


Email Spoofing or Business Email Compromise: A cybercriminal gains access to a producer’s or CSR’s inbox and sends fake policy changes or payment instructions to clients. This technique can lead to significant financial losses, underscoring the need for protective Cyber Liability Policies.


Fake Certificate Requests: Hackers request fraudulent certificates of insurance (COIs) to use in scams or claim nonexistent coverage, a situation that can potentially harm your agency's reputation.


Invoice Manipulation: A criminal intercepts a real invoice and changes the payment details—leading to payment being sent to a fraudulent account, demonstrating yet another facet of cyber crime that businesses must defend against.

What Cyber Crime Coverage Includes:

Reimbursement for lost funds due to wire fraud or impersonation is a crucial aspect of cyber crime coverage. Our services include forensic investigation and legal consultation to assist you in these matters. We also provide coverage for fraudulent instructions—even if internal protocols were followed—under our comprehensive cyber liability policies. In addition, we offer support during extortion attempts or ransom demands, along with optional bricking coverage for any permanently damaged hardware.
