In today’s digital age, businesses of all sizes face the ever-present threat of cyberattacks. Whether you are a small local shop managing client emails or a larger organization handling financial data, cyber risks are real and can be devastating.
Cyber insurance is a safeguard designed to protect your business from the financial and reputational fallout of an incident. Here is why it is no longer "optional."

Real-Life Impact in Connecticut
Consider a small accounting firm here in Connecticut that fell victim to ransomware. The hackers demanded $20,000. Because they had a Cyber policy, the insurance covered the ransom and the cost of an IT forensic expert to ensure the hackers were truly out of the system.
Without that "unsung hero" policy, the firm would have likely shuttered their doors forever.
