Accounting firms, consulting practices, real estate agencies, and financial advisors handle sensitive client data daily. Your E&O covers professional errors — not data breaches, email fraud, or ransomware.
Professional services firms experience the highest rate of social engineering attacks of any industry. Average BEC loss: $125K+.
Attackers impersonate firm partners, clients, or vendors to redirect payments, steal credentials, or access confidential client files. Professional services are the #1 target.
Tax returns, financial statements, legal documents, and personal identifiers. A single breach can destroy client trust and trigger PIPEDA notification obligations.
Your firm relies on cloud CRM, accounting software, document management, and email. A breach in any of these platforms exposes your clients' data — and your liability.
When ransomware encrypts your client files and practice management systems, your revenue stops. Without cyber coverage, recovery costs come directly from your bottom line.
Forensic investigation, client notification, credit monitoring, and legal defense when client personal or financial data is exposed.
Funds transfer fraud, vendor impersonation, and email compromise schemes targeting your firm's accounts and client relationships.
Breach notification costs, regulatory investigations, privacy commissioner inquiries, and fines related to client data handling.
Lost billable hours and revenue when your practice management, accounting, or CRM systems are down due to a cyber incident.
Ransom payments, decryption support, and recovery assistance when your client files and systems are encrypted by attackers.
If your team uses AI for research, client communications, or automated analysis, AI Shield covers hallucination liability and AI-driven errors your E&O may not.
Client SINs, T4s, financial statements — high-value data that commands premium prices on the black market.
Confidential strategy documents, M&A data, and proprietary client information stored across cloud platforms.
Client financial records, deposit handling, and personal identification data. Wire fraud targeting real estate is surging in Canada.
Investment data, personal financial plans, and regulatory compliance requirements. A breach is both a financial and regulatory disaster.
Yes. E&O covers professional errors and omissions — not data breaches, ransomware, or client data exposure. If your firm stores client financial data, tax returns, or personal information digitally, standalone cyber coverage is essential. Use our free Policy Gap Analyzer to see exactly where your E&O falls short.
Business email compromise (BEC) and social engineering. Professional services firms experience the highest rate of social engineering attacks globally, with average losses exceeding $125K per incident. Attackers impersonate partners, clients, or vendors to redirect payments or steal credentials.
Yes. CyberAgency Essential covers data breaches originating from third-party platforms including cloud CRM, accounting software, document management systems, and email providers. Your client data is covered regardless of where it's stored.
PIPEDA applies to any Canadian business that collects, uses, or discloses personal information commercially. Professional services firms handling client personal data — names, addresses, SINs, financial records — must comply with breach notification requirements and protect that data. Non-compliance penalties reach $100K per violation.
