With rise in instances such as the AIIMS ransomware attack, cyber insurance is looking like the need of the hour. Number of such cases rose significantly during the pandemic, when digital payments increased.

These policies are available both on individual and group levels, and cover both the monetary losses and the legal-defence cost incurred when seeking a redress.
