Resilience vs The Hartford Cyber Insurance

Resilience pairs a cyber insurance policy with security services such as threat monitoring and breach-and-attack simulations. In the US, the policy is placed by a distributor rather than underwritten by the Resilience brand itself. ³Company-reported. Cyber Insurance product page description of the combined offering, accessed 2026-09-23.

The Hartford sells cyber coverage three ways depending on complexity: as an endorsement (Data Breach and Cyber Virus and Malware) added to a Business Owner's Policy, as stand-alone CyberChoice First Response for non-technology businesses with more complex risk, or as FailSafe Technology Errors and Omissions for technology businesses. ⁹Company-reported. Cyber insurance product page as read 2026-09-23.

Resilience's US disclosure states that cyber insurance products are distributed by Ocrea Risk Services, LLC (NPN 19169260), doing business as Resilience Cyber Insurance Solutions, and underwritten by Homeland Insurance Company of New York or Homeland Insurance Company of Delaware, both subsidiaries of Intact Insurance Group USA LLC. The disclosure does not say which of the two Homeland entities issues a given policy. ⁴Company-reported. US paragraph of Resilience's disclaimer page, accessed 2026-09-23; product- and state-specific issuer mapping is not published.

Resilience lists privacy wrongful-act coverage, eCrime coverage up to $500,000, coverage for incident costs that exceed the policy limit (such as legal, forensics and crisis communications), and funds-transfer-fraud recovery assistance among its cyber policy features. ³Company-reported. "Policy Coverage" section of the product page; actual insuring agreements, sublimits and exclusions are set by the issued policy.

The Hartford lists covered expenses after a cyber event: incident response (legal, forensic investigation, public relations), cyber extortion/ransom payments and negotiation, data recovery, system/network restoration, lost income from business interruption, customer notification and credit monitoring, and regulatory-inquiry defense and fines.
