New Endorsements Introduced in 2021
- Widespread Event Endorsement addresses events with widespread impact, affecting parties with no relationship to the Insured. Similar to how flood and earthquake risks are addressed in property policies— coverage, limits, retentions, and coinsurance can be tailored for all Widespread Events, or by specific peril:
– Widespread Severe Vulnerability Exploits
– Widespread Severe Zero-Day Exploits
– Widespread Software Supply Chain Exploits
– All other Widespread Events - Ransomware Encounter Endorsement addresses the increasing risk of ransomware by allowing for a tailored set of coverage, limit, retention, and coinsurance to apply uniformly across all cyber coverages.
- Neglected Software Exploit Endorsement recognizes and rewards good software patching hygiene by providing full coverage for 45 days, and then for software that remains unpatched beyond 45 days, gradually re-weights risk sharing between the Insured and Insurer as time passes.
