For a data center, cyber insurance should be as much a priority as, say, fire insurance — but many companies don’t know what they need, or whether they’re covered by their existing policies.
Having a cyber insurance policy in place helps a data center minimize the financial impact of a breach, attack, or outage, Aleksandr Yampolskiy, CEO and co-founder of SecurityScorecard, said.
“This is especially important for data centers, as the incident will likely have an impact on the customers using the hosting services,” he said.
