Cyber incidents don’t just disrupt operations—they trigger legal, financial, and reputational consequences. This 60-minute session explores the critical intersection of cyber insurance and legal obligations during and after a cyber event. We’ll demystify what cyber insurance actually covers, what it doesn’t, and how to ensure your policy aligns with your risk profile. The session will also highlight key legal considerations such as breach reporting, regulatory compliance, liability, and contractual obligations. Aimed at both technical and non-technical professionals, this session will help you prepare your organisation to navigate the aftermath of an incident with confidence and clarity.

  • Understand what cyber insurance is and what it typically covers, including key exclusions and conditions.
