It pays the costs of dealing with administrative investigations and includes cover for fines imposed by data protection regulators to the extent such fines are insurable under law. Cyber-Insurance also pays for services of experts to protect reputation. Costs and expenses of dealing with cyber extortion are also covered under cyber-insurance.
