Cyber insurance for Plymouth businesses
Plymouth's naval and defence-linked businesses supply organisations that take security extremely seriously. For them, cyber standards are not a suggestion but a condition of doing the work.
Where the risks come from for Plymouth businesses
Suppliers to defence and other security-conscious buyers are increasingly required to meet formal cyber standards, such as Cyber Essentials, as a condition of contracts, and a business that cannot demonstrate them is shut out. The exposure is both the attack and the lost work of falling short of the standard.
A Plymouth example
A Plymouth defence supplier must evidence a formal cyber-security standard to keep its contracts, and works to meet it. Cyber cover, and the security improvements that go with it, both protect the business and support the certification its customers require.
What cyber insurance covers
For a supplier to security-conscious buyers, cyber cover pairs with formal security standards required by contract, protecting the business and supporting the certification. The cover and the compliance reinforce each other.
