#73: Cyber Insurance Review For Real Life

Think your cyber insurance has you covered? This episode pokes at the fine print that turns big promises into small payouts. We spotlight the exclusions that quietly gut claims, the sublimits that disappear faster than you can say “forensic invoice,” and the vendor clauses that spread your limits across more parties than you bargained for.

What we tease out:

• The exclusions that look routine but erase coverage when it counts.

• How “shared” limits get sliced among you, vendors, and associates.

• A quick, practical way to ballpark how much coverage you may actually need.

• What subrogation can do to your vendor relationships after a payout.

You will hear plain-English takeaways you can act on during your next renewal. Expect clear examples, simple checks you can run in under an hour, and a few dry laughs at the expense of legalese. The goal is simple. Stop paying for coverage that vanishes at claim time. Start asking the questions that turn your policy into a real financial backstop.

Listen if you sign renewals, answer to a CFO, support clients as an MSP, or just prefer not to discover gaps during an incident. Bring your policy schedule and a highlighter. Leave with a sharper view of what you actually have and what to fix before someone says, “We thought that was covered.”
