How Much Cyber Insurance Coverage Does a Business Need?

There is no universal number for how much cyber insurance a business needs, but there is a sound way to arrive at the right limit: match your coverage to the data you hold and the cost of a realistic incident.

What drives the amount

Consider how many customer records you store, how much revenue you would lose per day of downtime, and any obligations tied to the data you handle. A business with thousands of customer records and heavy reliance on its systems needs more than a small operation with little sensitive data.

A practical approach

Estimate the plausible cost of an incident, including response, lost income, and liability, then carry enough that a single event would not threaten the business. A licensed agent can help you translate that into a specific limit.
