Cyber Liability

We help safeguard against the constantly evolving web of cyber liability exposures that all industries face today. Yesterday’s standard security practices are no match for today’s data breaches, network failures, cyber extortion, and other sophisticated cyber crimes.

The most common cyber risks that insurance can help with include:

Cyber Services—Beyond Insurance

We present a four-way approach to cyber risk, focusing on risk assessment, enterprise coverage evaluation, risk transfer, and incident response.

Risk Assessment
Cyber Services Network
A broader cyber security solution, this comprehensive approach provides access to cyber experts to help clients identify risks and develop the security measures to protect their business and mitigate potential cyber attacks.
ENTERPRISE COVERAGE EVALUATION
Coverage Gap & Overlap Elimination
Cyber risk takes many forms, as can the insurance policy for a cyber incident. Just because you have other insurance policies that may be activated in a cyber incident, you likely have gaps around which damages they’ll actually pay, and you may also have overlaps in coverage. As brokers specializing in cyber liability, we explain what coverages you really need and how your other policies will respond to cyber incidents—and when they won’t.
Risk Transfer
Cyber Insurance
To provide protection against this complex world of risks, you can imagine that cyber insurance is complicated, with new and ever-evolving insurance products. Our team is constantly evaluating and negotiating coverage on your behalf to drive improvements in these products.
INCIDENT RESPONSE
Breach Response & Claims Expertise
It’s often a matter of “when” and not “if” a cyber attack will happen. The best way to mitigate the cost and impact of a cyber attack is to respond quickly and efficiently. Woodruff Sawyer has dedicated cyber claims experts on staff ready to assist you in responding to a cyber attack, ensuring a speedy recovery and preserving your rights under all available insurance policies.
