Beazley says Commercial Crime protects an organization from loss of money and securities caused by theft by its own employees, plus third-party-related losses such as forgery or alteration, on-premises and in-transit loss, money-order and counterfeit-currency fraud, computer fraud, client-property loss, credit-card fraud and related expense coverage. ⁵Company-reported.

Product-page description; Beazley says the out-of-band-authentication condition can be removed for insureds with documented controls and response plans, subject to an additional premium.
