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.

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
