Cysurance Launches Discounted Enhanced Ransomware Protection and Cyber Insurance Program for Sophos Customers in Canada

NEW YORK - Nov. 19, 2024 - PRLog -- Cysurance has announced the availability of its successful financial cyber protection program with Sophos in Canada. This extension of its offering, already available in the United States and Australia, marks an important milestone in the company's mission to provide comprehensive and affordable enhanced ransomware protection and cyber-insurance policies to businesses globally.

Cysurance is a next-generation risk mitigation company that certifies, warranties, and insures cybersecurity solutions for enterprise end-users. The company's goal is to reduce the frequency, severity, and business impact of cyber incidents through innovative insurance policies.

Program benefits for Sophos customers in Canada

Cysurance has developed the most inclusive and affordable warranty and cyber insurance policies for Canadian clients using Sophos Managed Detection and Response (MDR) solutions. These policies offer strong protection against financial losses from various cyber incidents, helping businesses operate with confidence.

"The insurance offers broad coverage for first-party incident response, business interruption, data recovery, cyber extortion, and third-party liability stemming from threats like ransomware and social engineering. Backed by carriers in the Lloyd's Syndicate, these programs ensure reliable protection for ransomware incidents and cover incident response costs up to the policy's full limit," said Kirsten Bay, CEO of Cysurance.

Sophos MDR customers in Canada can bypass traditional application and underwriting processes, as most will instantly qualify for discounted, high-quality cyber insurance policies. In the event of an incident, Cysurance's extended ransomware protection will respond first. If this protection is exhausted, the cyber insurance will cover additional remediation expenses and other security or business continuity events up to the policy limits.

The benefits of this program for Sophos customers in Canada include a streamlined application process, automatic qualification for those using Sophos MDR, and reduced insurance costs, allowing businesses to allocate more resources to improving their security.

The program also offers extended protection for ransomware incidents, providing immediate financial resources to address the situation. It helps organizations manage and rationalize risks in today's evolving cyber threat landscape, offering added peace of mind.

"As the threat landscape continues to increase in complexity, most organizations can't manage cybersecurity on their own, and neither should they have to. Organizations are increasingly adopting MDR services to ensure they have the best defenses against today's innovative, well-funded adversaries," said Jon Bove, senior vice president, Americas Sales, Sophos.

"Cysurance recognizes this and the value that Sophos' 24/7 threat detection and response experts provide to mitigate cyber risk. Cysurance's discounted insurance offering for Sophos customers is a testament to Sophos' MDR capabilities and the effective security services we provide."
