When you receive an insurance quote, business or personal, it’s always a good idea to schedule a brief call with your agent. Have your agent breakdown what the coverages mean and to provide an example of how the coverages can impact your particular business and personal assets. If you don’t understand, say so, and request they explain in laymen’s terms!

Let's talk Cyber Insurance! 💻
Hackers don’t just target big companies—small to mid-size businesses are hit all the time, and a single cyberattack can cost thousands or even close the doors. Check out the statistics:

*43% of cyber attacks target small businesses. Hackers are increasingly turning their attention to smaller companies as they often lack comprehensive cybersecurity defenses.

*60% of small businesses that experience a cyber attack go out of business within 6 months. The lack of resources to recover is a significant issue.

*Only 20% of small businesses perform regular vulnerability assessments. Many companies don’t proactively identify security gaps.

*The average cost of a small business data breach in 2025 is $120,000. This figure includes lost revenue, legal fees, and recovery efforts.

*Ransomware costs small businesses an average of $35,000 per incident. Many business owners feel forced to pay up to regain access to their own systems.

*Recovering from a phishing scam costs small businesses approximately $70,000. This includes lost productivity and customer mistrust.
