Posted on July 23, 2010 by Scott Godes 2 comments

LexisNexis was kind enough to have me record a podcast regarding insurance coverage for cyber liabilities. As LexisNexis states on the Insurance Law Center:

On this edition, Scott Godes discusses the types of cyber liabilities facing companies today, what to do, in terms of insurance, if a cyber incident or data breach occurs and types of policies that provide coverage for a cyber event.

Scott:

I really enjoyed your pod cast. You mentioned a book you authored. I would like to purchase this book. Let me know the title and where to get this.

I do a decent amount of tech business. Your point about getting carriers to take coverage responsibility is a much steeper slope in absence of a Cyber Liability policy.

Thanks for your fine work, looking forward to future podcasts.
