Cyber protection insurance for SMEs: protect your business continuity against any cyber attack

Any company can be a victim of cyber risks: only in Spain there are 400 cyber-attacks on companies every day. Moreover, SMEs are an easy victim for attackers: did you know that 7 out of 10 cyber-attacks affect SMEs, and that 60% of those that are attacked end up disappearing within 6 months?

The explanation is simple: SMEs have more vulnerable security systems and often have no contingency plans. In fact, the most common form of cyber-attack is via e-mail (1 out of every 130 e-mails contains a computer virus) and, for this reason, any mistake can be very expensive (the average cost per attack is €50,000). But it should also be known that these attacks result in the loss of customers and brand reputation for 30% of companies. 

If you want to guarantee the peace of mind of your business, at CINC Correduría de Seguros we make it easy for you to take out cyber protection insurance through one of the best insurance companies on the market to protect your business against losses that may be caused by computer attacks.

Business stoppage. Immediate and contingency actions and loss of profits.  If your website or sales platform is manipulated and your customers are unable to buy, the incident is resolved quickly so that you can resume business immediately. Furthermore, if a cyber attack forces you to close your business, you will receive payment for the economic losses while you can continue with your activity.
