At CFC, we believe cyber insurance should do more than just cover losses—it should help stop attacks before they happen. While our proactive cyber attack prevention services have long been a key part of our cyber insurance offering, the policy wording itself is often the key focus when comparing products. So, we’re making it easier than ever to understand their value, by embedding proactive services directly into the policy itself.
Our updated wording outlines exactly how businesses can access our services, what’s included and how we’ll notify you if we find a vulnerability. This puts prevention at the heart of our coverage, ensuring clients get more than just financial protection—with us, they get an active partner in cyber risk management.
What’s new: Putting proactive prevention front and center
The updated language now clearly outlines:
- Accessibility of our proactive services
- What these services include
- How we’ll alert insureds, if we identify a vulnerability or threat
Cyber insurance isn’t just about responding to attacks—it’s about helping to prevent them, saving policyholders from the time, stress and disruption of suffering an incident and making a claim. That’s why we’ve taken steps to ensure our attack prevention services are not just available, but simple to understand and benefit from.
Business benefits: Advanced cyber security services come free
Most businesses simply don’t have the resources to build an in-house cyber security team, and hiring external experts to stay ahead of threats can cost tens of thousands per year. But in today’s digital landscape, every business—regardless of size, budget, or industry—needs access to reliable cyber attack prevention services as part of their risk management strategy.
At CFC, our proactive cyber services are designed to help businesses avoid the disruption and cost of cyber incidents. By leveraging real-time claims data, vulnerability scanning, threat intelligence and threat hunting, we work to identify and mitigate risks before they can be exploited. This helps to prevent cyber incidents for our policyholders, meaning less stress and lower costs.
For businesses without dedicated cyber security teams, this level of support can be truly transformative.
Through the CFC Response app, policyholders have a direct line to cyber security expertise whenever they need it. Be it advice on strengthening defenses or taking immediate action to prevent an attack, policyholders gain an expert partner in navigating today’s complex cyber landscape. For businesses without dedicated cyber security teams, this level of support can be truly transformative.
These services kick in the moment a policy is bound and run 24/7 to provide round-the-clock protection. Most importantly, they’re included in every CFC cyber policy at no extra charge. Considering the cost of dealing with just one cyber incident can far exceed the price of a premium, access to proactive cyber security is truly a game changer.
