CYBER LIABILITY INSURANCE PLANNING

Will you qualify for Cyber Insurance?

While adding a Cyber Liability insurance plan can cover municipalities against malicious activities that can cause security breaches, not all policies are created equal. In addition, most reputable insurance companies require you to document any previous security breaches you may have had as well as ask you to provide your security and compliance policies. mDm can assist in helping you determine which level of coverage is right for you and guide you through the application process.
