What is Cyber Insurance?
Cyber insurance is a fairly new form of cover, designed in response to the growing costs of data breaches and hacking to SMEs.
The Australian Cyber Security Centre has some great guides to cyber-security for businesses. In this day and age, especially with the growth of cyber threats, it’s important for your security and data protocols to be adequate.
Most businesses have websites that are vulnerable to cyber-attacks. Even if you don’t have a website, almost every business uses some form of accounting or cloud-based software (think MYOB, Xero, Microsoft 365, etc.). These are all vulnerabilities.
What can be covered
- Legal defence costs
- Loss of income after a cyber event
- Third-party notification costs
- Extortion & ransom costs
- Restoration & investigation
- Public relations
- Accidental copyright infringements
What may not be
- Deliberate or intentional acts
- Physical damage to computer equipment
- Losses from power surge or infrastructure fault
- Failure to comply with PCI DSS requirements

Cyber Insurance Claim Example
Damon is the practice manager for a small dental clinic. One of their staff clicks on a link within an email, and accidentally downloads malware which locks the entire practice network down, and requires $50,000 ransom to be paid in Bitcoin to unlock it.
Damon contacts the emergency cyber response line for their cyber insurance policy who immediately appoint a specialist to come and evaluate the situation. The specialist authorises payment of the $50,000 ransom, and fortunately – the system can be unlocked.
The downtime for the practice was less than 1 business day, but Damon was able to rest easy knowing that if the unlock was unsuccessful, the practice’s lost income would have been reimbursed while they tried to restore/recover their data.

Contacted Consolidated to see if they could do better for our home insurances after getting a nasty increase with our current insurer. I was fortunate enough to be transferred to Alison Neve and I’m so glad that I was. She … More set expectations of getting back to me with quotes and was back to me within timeframe and laid out our options with emphasis on cover, service and not just price. I’m certainly a happy customer, it’s a joy dealing with a quality broker that goes the extra mile!! Thanks Alison.

I approached Consolidated Insurance Brokers to receive several quotes for the business I am employed by. These were close to the due date and varied from Commercial Property, Management Liability to Vehicle Insurance. I reached … More Jade Cooper and she was fabulous, nothing was a problem as my employer changed things around to see what way to go. I ended up feeling like I had gained a new friend by the time we finalised all our policies and felt well assured our policies were in good hands.
