The importance of cybersecurity insurance for non-profit organizations
Cyber security insurance is essential to protect non-profit organizations from financial losses caused by cyber attacks such as phishing, malware, and extortion. Since non-profit organizations may store a large amount of personal and activity information, cyber attacks may cause the leakage of these sensitive information, and general insurance plans may not provide sufficient protection. Therefore, specialized cybersecurity insurance is very important to protect the assets and reputation of the organization.
