Cyber Insurers Are Raising the Bar— Is Your Security Program Ready?

As cyber threats escalate, underwriters are demanding more proof of security maturity. Organizations must demonstrate strong technical controls, continuous monitoring, and response plans—or risk denied claims, higher premiums, or no coverage at all.

Don’t Let Coverage Gaps leave you Exposed to unnecessary Risk

We Help Clients—Stay Covered and Compliant

We act as your cybersecurity partner—not your insurance carrier. But we work closely with clients and their brokers to make sure cybersecurity controls, reporting structures, and incident response plans meet modern underwriting expectations.

  • Coverage requires proof of security measures
  • Claims can be denied without documented controls
  • MSPs may be limited from responding without carrier authorization
  • Coverage disputes arise when client and MSP policies differ

Avoid Coverage Pitfalls and Finger-Pointing During an Incident

InfoSight is not a party to your clients’ insurance contracts. Any incident response requires prior authorization from the carrier.

Policy misalignment between MSPs and their clients can complicate claims and trigger liability disputes.

Unauthorized actions—even with good intent—can invalidate coverage and result in denied claims or subrogation exposure.

InfoSight Carries E&O Cyber Liability Coverage—Do You?

InfoSight maintains Cyber Liability Errors & Omissions (E&O) Insurance to protect against professional service-related claims. But each client still needs their own policy for:

Cyber Insurance Considerations

Issue
Why It Matters
Unauthorized Incident Response
Carriers often require pre-approval; unauthorized MSP response can void coverage.
Different Insurance Carriers
When MSP and client have different cyber insurers, liability disputes can arise.
Subrogation Risk
If your MSP steps in without carrier authorization, carriers may pursue subrogation.
Shared Coverage Assumptions
Clients mistakenly assume their MSP’s insurance covers them—it does not. Each client must carry their own cyber liability insurance.
