The American Bar Association has released a guide to evaluating network security/cyber-liability insurance.
“Protecting Against Cyber Threats: A Lawyer's Guide to Choosing a Cyber-Liability Insurance Policy” provides an explanation of the terminology and practices common in this area of coverage, the ABA said in an announcement.
The 32-page manual is published by the ABA Standing Committee on Lawyers' Professional Liability and discusses what to look for in terms of coverage terms, price, limits and deductibles.
The guide also includes a listing of carriers offering this insurance.
It is written by Eileen R. Garczynski, a member of the ABA committee. Ms. Garczynski has more than 25 years of risk management and insurance experience. She is senior vice president and equity partner of Ames & Gough, where she co-leads the law firm initiative, focusing on the risk management and insurance needs of law firms.
