We have all the basic forms of insurance in place to mitigate our risks. Something has been bothering me for a while. After the HBGary Federal incident I started asking my employees to regularly back up the data to a remote server in Nevada. What worries me is that storing data on a central server is like putting all your eggs in a single basket. It just doesn’t feel right. Is there any sort of insurance instrument to cover for data losses, data breaches, hack attacks, etc.? _________________ Register Now to have your Insurance queries solved.	Nevada51 Guest

Some policies even cover loss of income and content liability. It wasn't a very popular product till a couple of years ago when Operation Aurora, Sony and Epsilon incidents created a demand for the product.
