Insurers Require Proof of Cybersecurity



Stay Connected, Protected, and Insured

Small and medium businesses (SMBs) face a new reality. Cyberattacks are no longer just a big-company problem. From phishing emails that trick employees, to ransomware that locks up systems, to costly downtime that halts sales, the risks are growing every day.

At the same time, cyber insurance has changed. Insurers now require proof that a business has cybersecurity protections in place before they will issue or renew a policy. For many SMBs, this creates a challenge: how to get the right security without enterprise budgets or IT staff.

πŸ’° SMBs can face $3,500 to $7,000+ yearly cost for adequate coverage πŸ“‘

πŸ“‰ Higher rates or denials without strong security controls ❌

πŸ‘‰ That’s where MSPs and Resellers come in.

The SMB Cyber Threat Landscape

πŸ“§ Phishing emails: Employees can be tricked into clicking harmful links.

πŸ’» Ransomware & malware: Criminals lock systems and demand payment.

⏱ Downtime: Every minute offline costs sales and customer trust.

Why Insurance Alone Isn’t Enough ⚠️

Insurance helps with recovery, but it won’t prevent breach in the first place. Carriers are tightening requirements, and SMBs that don’t have proactive defenses risk:

❌ Higher premiums πŸ’°

❌ Coverage denial πŸ›‘

❌ Bigger out-of-pocket costs πŸ’Έ
