Hackers aren't just targeting Google and Apple anymore. They are targeting local dentists, law firms, and e-commerce shops because their security is often weaker.

What Cyber Insurance Actually Pays For

  1. Data Recovery: Restoring your systems after a wipe.
  2. Notification Costs: Legally notifying your customers about the breach.
  3. Extortion: Sometimes paying the ransom to get your data back (though discouraged).
  4. Legal Defense: Defending you if customers sue for data negligence.

A basic cyber policy for a small LLC costs as little as $500/year but can save a business from a $200,000 breach expense.
