SECTION A: CYBER INCIDENT RESPONSE COSTS

This section addresses coverage for the initial support, advice, and consultation with our cyber incident response manager.

This section addresses coverage for legal advice, drafting notification letters, notifying regulatory bodies and defending regulatory actions/investigations.
