BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

Corvus introduces smart cyber insurance

Reprints

Corvus Insurance Holdings Inc. is releasing smart cyber insurance, offering broad cyber coverage to organizations with up to $1 billion in annual revenue, the company said in a statement Tuesday.

The coverage will feature “ongoing IT security scanning and scoring” designed to help predict and mitigate exposures, the statement said.

Corvus will create a risk score for each account, and the insurance includes coverage for contingent business interruption, system failure, social engineering attacks, ransomware, reputational loss and multimedia liability.

Smart cyber insurance policies are distributed by Corvus on a managing general agency basis with its partner, Hudson Insurance Group, the statement said. 

Hudson is a unit of Fairfax Financial Holdings Ltd.

“With smart cyber, we monitor IT security assets for vulnerabilities when we underwrite an account and on an ongoing basis,” Phil Edmundson, founder and CEO of Boston-based Corvus, said in the statement.
