CLE on Meeting the New Challenges of Cyber Insurance Coverage: Think You’re Covered? Think Again

November 19, 2018

The American Law Institute is holding a webcast entitled, Meeting the New Challenges of Cyber Insurance Coverage: Think You’re Covered? Think Again, on Thursday, December 13, 2018 from 1:00 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. Eastern. Provided below is a description of the event.

Why You Should Attend

The increasing severity of cyber threats to clients and firms alike has necessitated the evolution of cyber insurance policies to meet the variety of challenges to coverage posed by breaches and data loss. However, the lack of uniformity and inadequacy of terms in these policies has presented an added level of confusion and, more often than not, escalated the intensity of the litigation over coverage disputes. Given the required complexity of coverage, it is no longer good enough to have an insurance policy in place that was signed years ago. Today’s cyber risk environment demands that cyber policies be regularly reviewed and revised to avoid claims being denied due to coverage gaps, vague wording, and outdated provisions.

What You Will Learn

Our panel of experts will address emerging cyber threats and highlight new areas of cyber insurance coverage that meet the latest challenges and give direction to help ensure that claims will be covered by the policy. Join us for this 90-minute video webcast to understand current risks associated with cybersecurity, including cyberterrorism, and how to craft cyber insurance policies to best mitigate the impact of data, reputational, and financial loss. Topics include:

How to identify gaps present in traditional insurance programs
