Cyber insurance for London businesses
London's businesses handle more transactions, and more scrutiny, than anywhere, and fraudsters bring their best tools to the capital. The newest of those tools is artificial intelligence.
Where the risks come from for London businesses
Criminals now use AI to make fraud more convincing, deepfake audio or video of an executive authorising a payment, flawless imitation of a colleague or client. A member of staff who would spot a clumsy scam can be fooled by a synthetic voice or face that seems entirely real.
A London example
Staff at a London business act on a video call and voice message convincingly deepfaked to impersonate a senior executive, and authorise a large payment to a fraudster. Cyber cover with social-engineering and funds-transfer protection responds to the loss, an exposure growing as AI makes deception harder to detect.
What cyber insurance covers
Cyber cover's social-engineering and funds-transfer protection answers for money lost to fraud, including the AI-enabled deception now emerging. As the fraud grows more convincing, that cover matters more.
