Event Synopsis:

The threat of corporate cyber-attacks, under scored by that upon Target Inc., has encouraged US businesses to purchase cyber-liability and data breach insurance to protect against hacking and loss of corporate and customer data. Many companies can no longer rely upon information technology staff and systems to prevent data breaches. Loss of data and reputational damage are serious risks that can ruin a corporation.

In a two hour live webcast, a panel of thought leaders and professionals assembled by The Knowledge Group will provide an overview of the critical issue of Insurance Coverage for Data Breaches.

Key topics include:

§  Cyber Liability Insurance – An Overview

§  Risks and Consequences of Data Breaches

§  Insurance Coverage for Data Breach

§  Evaluating Data Breach Insurance

§  Traditional Policies for Data Breach

§  Comprehensive General Liability (CGL) Policies

§  Regulatory and Compliance Issues
