$1M Dedicated Liability Insurance for CISOs and Senior Technology Executives
As cybersecurity incidents grow in complexity and regulatory scrutiny intensifies, Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) and other senior security leaders face increasing personal exposure. CYGNVS now includes dedicated CISO Liability Insurance coverage for eligible enterprise subscribers, providing financial protection for the decisions and actions taken by security leaders during cyber incidents. Designed in partnership with Marsh Risk and AIG, this first-of-its-kind program bridges the worlds of cybersecurity operations and executive liability protection.
Growing Personal Risk for CISOs
Cyber incidents are no longer purely technical events, they are corporate governance events that can lead to regulatory investigations, shareholder litigation, and executive scrutiny.
Security leaders are increasingly held accountable for:
-
Cyber incident disclosures
-
Governance decisions during a crisis
- Regulatory compliance and reporting
- Risk management oversight
Yet many CISOs remain unprotected with traditional corporate insurance programs often failing to adequately cover these individual exposures.
First-of-Its-Kind Protection for Security Leaders
CYGNVS is the first SaaS platform to include dedicated CISO liability insurance as a customer benefit.
This program recognizes a critical industry gap:
-
CISOs and security leaders may face personal legal and financial exposure following a cyber incident, even when acting in good faith on behalf of their organizations.
-
The CYGNVS liability coverage focuses on protecting the decisions and actions of security leaders during incidents, rather than focusing on technology failures often tied to a vendor's product, as many cyber warranties do.
Only From CYGNVS
Insurance partners recognize that CYGNVS reduces the operational impact of cyber incidents by providing a secure, out-of-band command center for incident response.
CYGNVS enables organizations to:
- Prepare incident response plans
- Practice tabletop exercises
- Execute coordinated response during incidents
- Document actions for regulators and stakeholders
This lifecycle approach helps organizations reduce the cost and impact of cyber incidents while strengthening governance and accountability.
Bridging Cybersecurity and Insurance
CYGNVS combines cyber resilience technology with executive protection.
Unlike cyber warranties tied to technology failures, CYGNVS CISO liability coverage protects the leadership decisions made during a cyber crisis.
This provides security leaders with the confidence that they are protected while managing high-stakes incidents.
Customer Perspective

As a CYGNVS customer, CISO liability insurance being a benefit of the platform is a prudent safeguard to ensure meaningful protection.” - Jeff Farinich, EVP Technology Services & CISO, New American Funding
