Examining Cyber Risks - ANS - A cyber risk loss exposure is a condition that presents
OM
the possibility of financial loss to an organization because data ended up in the
possession of a party who is not authorized to have it.

their systems and data, as well as to those of their customers and suppliers.
NA
Property loss exposure - ANS Property exposed to cyber loss can be tangible or
intangible. Tangible property can include computer systems, production equipment, and
machinery. Intangible property can include data, trade secrets, and intellectual property.
Say, for example, an employee's computer becomes infected with a virus. It could lead
to lost data and to permanent damage to the computer and other devices connected to
JP
it.
Income loss exposure - ANS Insurance professionals and the organizations they work
with should consider any possible business interruption that could result from a cyber
risk loss exposure that would decrease revenues and/or increase expenses.
For example, if an online company's website is shut down because of a cyberattack, it
would not be able to take orders, leading to a loss of income. In addition, it would likely
incur expenses to get the website running again.
