In this episode, we dive deep into the wild world of cyber insurance and the massive changes that have unfolded between 2020 and 2023. Remember when we said cyber risks would increase and insurance applications would get tougher? Well, they sure did! And that’s just the start. Join us as we break down how cyber insurance policies have evolved—from simple yes/no questions to intense multi-page interrogations.

But wait, there’s more! Like the Joker sequel no one asked for, this episode takes an unexpected turn, and we’ll spend some quality time discussing Incident Response Plans—the unsung hero of cybersecurity that can make or break your insurance prospects. Not sure what a real IR plan looks like? Spoiler: "Call Dave to fix it" won’t cut it.

Get ready for a deep, sometimes sarcastic, but always insightful exploration of the policies and plans that protect your business—and your sanity—in the face of rising cyber threats.
