ISMIE provides cyber liability coverage to protect you

 
The Russian invasion of Ukraine has U.S. security experts concerned about potential cyberattacks on businesses in our country, especially the healthcare sector. In fact, the federal government is urging those who may be at risk to prepare now to secure their data.
 
The healthcare sector is particularly vulnerable to cyberattacks because technology is so central to the delivery of care. Practices and facilities of all sizes are at risk and need to have in place effective cybersecurity practices.
