What Is Cyber Insurance?

Personal cyber insurance covers individuals for their personal online security risks and financial loss due to cybercrime.

Cybercrimes and risks include:

  • Online account takeover or compromise
  • Expenses incurred or financial loss due to identity theft or social engineering scams
  • SIM swapping incidents
  • Smart home device-related incidents
  • Ransomware
