What are the risks of cybercrime?
Cyber attacks unfortunately occur on a daily basis.

The dangers of cybercrime
If you are not yet convinced of the importance of cyber insurance, we have listed the main dangers of cybercrime below.
Data theft
A great danger is that your important data will be out on the street. As soon as cybercriminals gain access to your systems, they can retrieve this data. This also means that they can access, for example, customer and supplier data. This is personal data that hackers can misuse in various ways. The consequences for a company are often incalculable.
Website (temporarily) unavailable
When cyber criminals bring your website down, this means that you will temporarily be unable to reach (potential) customers. The consequence of this is that there will (temporarily) be no income. Especially when you only have a webshop and only sell your products online, this can lead to a lot of lost revenue.
High costs
The costs of a cyber attack are often incalculable. This can be caused by digital fraud or theft of personal data. The (temporary) taking down of your website by hackers can also cause high costs. With an eye to the future and in order to prevent a new cyber attack, it will be necessary to tighten digital security. All in all, a cyber attack causes very high costs.
Image damage
Besides the fact that a cyber-attack can cost you a lot of money, it can also damage your company's reputation. Hackers are often interested in making a lot of money quickly. However, hackers can also have other motives, such as causing damage to your image. This can be done through identity fraud. When your company becomes a victim of cyber criminals, this results in negative publicity and damage to your company's image.
