Fairfirst Insurance launched cyber insurance and has already become the market leader in this segment by insuring a number of leading financial as well as nonfinanci­al organisati­ons as its clients.

Cyber insurance from Fairfirst is designed to help not only large corporates but also the SMES and even individual­s. For corporates and SMES, Fairfirst Insurance covers losses that would range from network security breaches, loss of privacy, indemnific­ation from lawsuits related to data breaches and even business interrupti­on losses following a cyberattac­k.

This insurance also covers legal liability claims arising from third parties to the insured, due to a breach of privacy as a result of a cyberattac­k. Fairfirst Insurance Chief Sales Officer Sanjay Siriwarden­a mentioned, “The use of digital technologi­es in financial and economic activities creates significan­t benefits in terms of convenienc­e, productivi­ty and efficiency but also leads to significan­t risks. In order to address these digital security risks, we provide a comprehens­ive suite of insurance solutions that offer a range of covers to individual­s and corporate entities across this beautiful island. The successful delivery as well as the comprehens­iveness of this product has resulted in great demand and trust amongst many top brands across financial and nonfinanci­al industries at a rapid pace. And when focusing on the economy as a whole, I believe that Fairfirst cyber insurance provides the perfect safety net for corporates and individual­s alike to thrive in the new normal whilst transformi­ng their businesses and lifestyles.”
