In our increasingly online and digital world, every company faces potential “cyber risks.” It’s a term that’s used frequently and a topic of the daily news cycle. Cyber risk represents two major perils: network security failure and privacy incident, which simply means an organization’s failure to protect its computer systems or private information, or both. A network security failure or a privacy incident can be totally intertwined or mutually exclusive. If either of these incidents occur, your organization can suffer various losses.

Starr’s Cyber Risk Response policy addresses many of the common repercussions that organizations face as a result of cyber risk perils. We provide protection for losses with a comprehensive policy form that’s designed to pay for expenses sustained by your organization from an actual or suspected network security failure, or privacy incident.

The policy also provides defense costs, and pays for damages that arise from legal liability stemming from these types of incidents.
