Cyber Insurance
Get More Than a Policy.
Every business that collects customer data is exposed to a cyber loss. The average data breach costs $204 per lost record — and the reputational damage can be even greater. Bancorp Insurance partners with Cowbell Cyber to deliver proactive, closed-loop cyber risk management.
Why It Matters
No Business Is Too Small to Be a Target
Cybercriminals don’t only target large corporations. Small businesses are increasingly targeted because they often have weaker defenses. If your business collects any customer data, you are exposed.
$204 Per Lost RecordThe average cost of a data breach is $204 per compromised record — more than half attributable to lost customers and the public relations costs to rebuild your business’s reputation. | Ransomware Is RisingRansomware attacks, email scams, and social engineering fraud have surged. A single successful attack can lock you out of your systems, expose client data, and halt your business operations entirely. | Employees Are the Weakest LinkMost breaches start with a phishing email or an employee clicking a malicious link. Cyber awareness training and proper coverage work together to reduce your risk and limit financial damage when incidents occur. |

Frequently Asked Questions
Cyber Insurance Questions Answered
Common questions from Oregon business owners about cyber liability coverage.
Does my general liability policy cover a cyber attack? +
No. Standard general liability policies do not cover cyber incidents, data breaches, or ransomware attacks. Cyber coverage must be purchased as a standalone policy. Many business owners assume they are covered under their GL or BOP and discover the gap only after an incident occurs.
What businesses need cyber insurance? +
Any business that collects, stores, or transmits customer data is exposed to a cyber loss — regardless of size or industry. This includes retailers, contractors, medical offices, law firms, restaurants, and more. If you store names, addresses, payment information, or health data, you need cyber coverage.
What is ransomware and how does cyber insurance cover it? +
Ransomware is malicious software that encrypts your files and demands payment to restore access. Cyber insurance through Cowbell Prime™ covers ransomware attack response, ransom negotiation, data recovery costs, and business interruption losses while your systems are down.
What are Cowbell Factors™? +
Cowbell Factors™ are Cowbell Cyber’s proprietary risk rating system. They assess your organization’s unique cyber risk posture on a continuous basis using external data, firmographics, claims history, and dark web intelligence. Factors help generate a policy that matches your specific vulnerabilities with the right coverages — rather than applying a generic policy to your business.
How much does cyber insurance cost for a small business? +
Cyber insurance premiums vary based on revenue, industry, the type of data you store, your current security measures, and the coverage limits you select. Many small businesses are surprised to find that cyber coverage is more affordable than expected. Book a free appointment with a Bancorp agent to get a quote tailored to your business.
What is social engineering fraud and is it covered? +
Social engineering fraud involves criminals manipulating employees into transferring funds or sharing sensitive information. Common examples include fake invoice scams, CEO impersonation emails, and business email compromise (BEC). Cowbell Prime™ includes coverage for social engineering and fund transfer fraud.
