Cyber insurance for Yeovil businesses
Yeovil's aerospace and engineering businesses run industrial and design systems they often believe are safely isolated from the internet. That belief, that a system is 'air-gapped' and therefore safe, is more comforting than it is true.
Where the risks come from for Yeovil businesses
Systems thought to be isolated are often reachable after all, through a connected maintenance laptop, a USB drive, a forgotten link, and attackers know to look for the way in that the business assumed did not exist. The confidence that a system is offline can be exactly what leaves it undefended.
A Yeovil example
A supposedly-isolated system at a Yeovil engineering business is compromised through a connected device that bridged the gap, an attack the business believed was impossible. Cyber cover meets the response and recovery, reflecting that few systems are as isolated as their owners assume.
What cyber insurance covers
Cyber cover responds to attacks on industrial and supposedly-isolated systems, meeting the response and recovery, because true isolation is rare. Verifying, rather than assuming, that critical systems are protected is the lesson.
