Cyber Insurance – What Every Business Should Know
Cyberattacks don’t just target big corporations—small and mid-sized businesses are often in the firing line too. One incident can halt operations, drain finances, and damage reputation overnight.
That’s why more business owners are turning to cyber insurance. But here’s the kicker: a policy doesn’t guarantee a payout. Insurers want proof that your business had the right protections in place before the breach.
In our latest blog, we break down:

Cyber Insurance Readiness Checklist for Business Leaders
Insurers don’t just want a signature — they want proof your business takes cyber risks seriously. Without the right protections in place, your application may stall before it even begins.
That’s why we’ve created a Cyber Insurance Readiness Checklist. It covers the essentials insurers look for, including:
Multi-factor authentication (MFA)
Employee cyber awareness training
Incident response planning
If you already tick the boxes, you’ll know you’re on track.
If not, you’ll know exactly where to focus.
It’s a quick way to prepare, reduce your risk, and strengthen your application.
How an IT Support Strengthens Cyber Insurance
Cyber insurance isn’t just about having a policy — it’s about proving your business is ready before, during, and after an incident. That’s where the right IT partner comes in.
From qualifying for coverage to navigating a claim, IT support helps you:
Document the controls insurers look for
Set up preventative systems
Build a response plan that stands up to scrutiny
With the right partner, you can check every box, reduce your risk, and recover faster when threats strike.
