• Business interruption coverage applies after a waiting period while extra rxpense is excess of a dollar retention.
• The reimbursement period for losses arising from a data breach or cyber-security breach is 18 months.
• Unlimited reimbursement period for loss of business income. Expanded definition of “outsourced provider” to include any third party contracted to perform any business service on behalf of an insured company.

CyberRiskConnect provides broad coverage for data protection and privacy risks, both for third-party claims and first-party mitigation costs following a technology or cyber event.

Coverage is tailored for businesses across various industries and technology companies. Several breach preparedness tools are available via XL’s online resource site as well as through XL Catlin’s preferred vendor network.
