Cyber insurance for Maidenhead businesses
Maidenhead is home to the UK headquarters of many corporates, businesses that grow by acquisition as much as anything. Buying a company means buying its cyber history, known and unknown.
Where the risks come from for Maidenhead businesses
When a business acquires another, it inherits that company's systems, data and any breaches, sometimes ones not yet discovered. A latent compromise or a past breach in an acquired business can surface as the buyer's problem, and its liability, after the deal is done.
A Maidenhead example
A Maidenhead business acquires another and later discovers a breach that predated the deal, inheriting the response, notification and liability. Cyber cover, and proper cyber due diligence before the deal, address an exposure that acquisitions quietly carry.
What cyber insurance covers
Cyber cover, and cyber due diligence at the point of acquisition, address the risk of inheriting an acquired business's breaches and exposures. For an acquisitive business, that matters as much as the deal itself.
