Small businesses are targets too

Small businesses often have less security protection than large companies, which can make them targets for scams, ransomware, and data breaches. Many owners don't consider whether their current insurance responds to these events.

Explain cyber insurance simply

AI can help you write general explanations of what cyber insurance policies commonly address, such as data breach response and business interruption from cyber events. Coverage varies significantly, so keep explanations general and encourage policy reviews.

Risk conversation starters

  • Do you store customer data?
  • Do you accept online payments?
  • How do employees handle suspicious emails?
  • Do you back up your data?
  • Who would you call if your systems went down?

AI can help you build a short questionnaire for clients.

Pair insurance with prevention

AI can help you write simple security tips for clients, such as using multi-factor authentication and training employees to recognize phishing. Prevention tips show you care about their business, not just the sale.

Application preparation

Cyber insurance applications often ask detailed security questions. AI can help create a guide explaining what information clients should gather.

Stay accurate

Review all content with carrier materials and avoid promising coverage.
