Cyber Security and Insurance Coverage Protection: The Perfect Time for an AuditNationalUnderwriter
Cyber Security and Insurance Coverage Protection: The Perfect Time for an Audit by Lynda Bennett
2014 ended almost the same way that it began for most companies – having concerns about cyber security and hackers. At the beginning of the year, the news cycle was focused on breaches that took place in the consumer product space as Target, Michael’s, Neiman Marcus, and Home Depot worked fast and furious to address breaches that led to concerns about a massive amount of credit card information possibly being “in the open.” Later in the year, we learned that corporate giants like JPMorgan Chase and Apple were not immune from cyber security breaches as still more personally identifiable information and very personal photographs were released into the public domain. Finally, as 2014 drew to a close, the entertainment industry was further rocked by the cyber-attack on Sony Corp., which led to even broader concerns about national security and terrorist threats.

Innovation following recessions often drives new economic growth.

PressRelease
Jim Venezia of Phoenix Insurance Group, Inc. Attends the First
Annual Patent Insurance Institute: Pi2
Chester, NJ October 26, 2010: Jim Venezia of Phoenix Insurance Group, Inc. attended the first annual Patent
Insurance Institute September 28 and 29, 2010, in Louisville, KY. This intense, two-day event, presented by the
industry leader in intellectual property (IP) insurance, Intellectual Property Insurance Services
Corporation (IPISC), advanced and developed strategies for using intellectual property insurance to
manage risks and protect the value of his clients’ IP assets. Jim joined other select brokers from
throughout the US and the world in preparing to be a market leader in the dynamic field of IP insurance.
Intellectual property insurance is designed to protect what often is a company’s most valuable asset, its
IP. Policies are available to enforce the insured company’s intellectual property rights; to defend against
charges that an insured product or activity is infringing on others’ rights; or for first-party losses including
lost revenue. Companies with IP insurance can deter frivolous litigation and may be more attractive to
investors. Coverage can be placed for wide variety of IP including patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade
secrets and other confidential information.
My client's characterize me as a "valued advisor" and creative problem solver. I solve/address their
insurance needs and problems with technical insight, knowledge, solid communication skills and with a
passion that speaks confidence and imparts trust.
