Computer Ransom

In  the world we live in today, there are new threats popping up every day. If you have a commercial business insurance policy, you need to be concerned about "Computer Ransom".

Computer Ransom is when a hacker downloads a virus into your business computer that locks up your computer and all the information you have in it. Then, you get notification that for a "fee", they will release the computer and it's information to you. Fees (blackmail) range from $2500 and up. The police, FBI and computer experts will tell you to pay the fee, since they have no way to correct the situation.

If coverage for this type of event is important to you, please contact your insurance provider so they can talk to you about this coverage and possibly add it to your policy.
