A general liability policy may not cover losses tied to cyber incidents or data exposure. Dave Millet Insurance Agency offers cyber liability insurance to help Louisiana businesses manage these risks.

Why Cyber Liability Insurance Matters

Data breaches can result in many types of losses and expenses. Cyber threats can affect organizations of any size, and smaller firms may be targeted more frequently due to limited security resources. Cyber liability insurance can help cover costs that general liability policies may not address.

What Does It Cover?

Standard cyber liability policies can provide coverage for the following:

Business interruption coverage may help compensate for lost income if a cyber event disrupts your operations.
Legal and regulatory coverage may help cover legal defense costs arising from lawsuits and regulatory fines resulting from data breaches.
Data breach response coverage may assist with notifying affected individuals, credit monitoring and public relations efforts.
Cyber extortion coverage may apply to losses related to ransomware and other forms of cyber extortion.

Who Needs This Coverage?

Any business that stores customer data, processes payments or relies on digital systems may be exposed to cyber threats. Healthcare providers, retailers, law firms, contractors and professional services firms can be common candidates, but the need for coverage may extend well beyond those industries.
