Introduction

+

The financial and operational impact of cyber incidents continues to rise worldwide. Ransomware, data breaches, supply-chain compromise, and targeted attacks can disrupt operations, damage reputation, and create long-term liabilities.

+
+

Cyber insurance helps organizations absorb financial damage — but insurers increasingly demand demonstrable security maturity before offering adequate coverage.

+

CypSec bridges this gap by preparing organizations for insurance eligibility, reducing risk exposure, and supporting incident documentation and claims.

Most small and mid-sized businesses underestimate both the probability and the impact of a cyber event. Our readiness programme quantifies your current exposure, maps it to insurance requirements, and delivers a prioritised improvement plan that underwriters recognise.

+

By the end of the engagement you will have a concise evidence pack (policies, architecture diagrams, test reports, attestation letters) that can be handed to any carrier or broker, cutting weeks off the application cycle and often reducing quoted premiums by 15–40 %.

Key Insight

+

Cyber insurance is part of a strategic risk-transfer plan — but it cannot stand alone. Security maturity determines coverage, premiums, and claim success.

+ + +
+

Underwriters now score applicants using proprietary maturity models. Organisations that cannot demonstrate baseline controls (MFA, logging, incident playbooks, patch cadence) are declined or offered only punitive, high-excess policies.

+

Our readiness service closes those gaps before you submit the application, turning a potential decline into a competitive quote.

"Hope is not a strategy."
— General James Mattis
+

Often cited in cybersecurity and risk governance circles, the quote underscores a harsh reality: most companies—especially small businesses—assume the odds of a cyberattack are low. Yet the stakes are high enough to wipe out the entire business.

+ + +
+

In 2023, 61 % of SME cyber victims in the D-ACH region ceased trading within six months of a material incident. Insurance pay-outs often arrive too late to save brand credibility or customer trust.

+

CypSec's programme treats readiness as a business-critical function, not an IT side-project, giving leadership the same confidence they have for fire or liability cover.

Incident Response Support

+
+

If a breach occurs, CypSec provides:

  • forensic analysis
  • containment
  • documentation
+
  • impact assessment
  • recovery guidance
+
+

Essential: This is essential for facilitating insurance claims and reducing long-term losses.

+ + +
+

Within 24 h of an incident we provide:

+
    +
  • Forensic timeline with log integrity hashes (court-admissible)
    • +
  • Breach notification decision tree and template letters (GDPR / BDSG)
    • +
  • Business-impact statement for loss-adjuster / accountant
    • +
  • Photos and chain-of-custody sheets for any seized hardware
    • +
+

Having these documents ready typically shortens the claim approval cycle by 30–45 days and reduces disputes over coverage limits.
