While Coalition’s claims team sees a variety of cyber events on a daily basis, we understand that the quickest way to monetize the crime will always be the most common. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the crime of choice is funds transfer fraud by way of email intrusion.

The hallmark of a great (cyber) insurance policy is that it is broadly written to cover every imaginable loss scenario — yes, including those arising from a pandemic! — while clearly defining which scenarios are excluded from coverage.
