Cyber insurance for Bedford businesses
Bedford's businesses increasingly trade and operate online, through websites, portals and connected systems that need to stay up to earn. A denial-of-service attack sets out to take exactly that away.
Where the risks come from for Bedford businesses
A distributed denial-of-service attack floods a business's website or systems with traffic until they buckle, knocking an online operation offline for as long as the attack lasts. For a business that sells or works online, every hour down is lost trade, and attackers sometimes demand payment to stop.
A Bedford example
A DDoS attack takes down the online-trading platform of a Bedford business for two days, cutting off orders and customers. Cyber cover meets the business interruption and the cost of mitigating the attack, and responds to any extortion demand that accompanies it.
What cyber insurance covers
Cyber cover responds to denial-of-service attacks, meeting the interruption to online trade, the cost of mitigation, and any linked extortion. It works with the wider business-interruption and response covers.
