Cyber Advantage Pro from The Hanover

Businesses depend on technology to operate day-to-day—from using computers, laptops and other devices, to relaying customer and payment information electronically and storing records in the cloud. As technology continues to evolve, so do the threats created by this dependency. That’s why businesses need cyber coverage that is flexible and can provide critical protection against ever-changing exposures.

The Hanover’s Cyber Advantage Pro is designed to help address the dynamic needs of businesses that utilize technology in daily operations. With its dedicated cyber limit, single policy with customizable coverage options, risk management resources and post-incident response services, Hanover Cyber Advantage Pro is a smarter, all-in-one cyber solution.

Quote and issue online

With TAP Sales, you can quickly and easily quote and issue a Hanover Cyber Advantage Pro policy for eligible small businesses via the small firm coverage level offering, or get a non-bindable premium indication for businesses that would benefit from more customized coverage or higher limits via the standard firm coverage level offering.

Eligibility requirements for small firm coverage include:

  • Up to $25 million revenue
  • 75 or fewer employees
  • No losses in the past three years
  • Dependent on the assessment of the technical characteristics associated with the applicant's external facing network(s)

For businesses not eligible for the small firm coverage level offering, you can obtain a non-bindable premium indication via the standard firm coverage level offering in TAP Sales.

Small firm coverage level offering

The small firm coverage level is intended for those risks requiring more coverage than is typically afforded via the ‘bolt-on’ approach, without the often-cumbersome process required to obtain standalone cyber coverage. It fills a potential product gap between business owner's policy and package policy ‘bolt-on’ cyber coverage and large limit standalone products. 

Not available in ND or SD. Only $500K limit available in NM.

Standard firm coverage level offering

For businesses that would benefit from a more customized coverage approach or higher limits, as well as businesses not eligible for the small firm coverage level offering, you can obtain a non-bindable premium indication via the standard firm coverage level offering in TAP Sales.

Limits up to $5 million are available, with the flexibility to amend limits and retentions for individual coverages. Target appetite and state availability are consistent with the small firm offering, with availability in ND and SD.

How it works:

You'll answer a series of questions about the business and its cyber practices to generate a non-bindable premium indication. After reviewing the indication, you can easily move forward with obtaining a bindable quote by submitting the risk to your dedicated cyber underwriter via TAP Sales. Your dedicated cyber underwriter will work to tailor the coverage, limit and retention options to align with your customer's cyber needs.
