# CFC Cyber Insurance

CFC Cyber Proactive Response

CFC's flagship cyber product, Cyber Proactive Response, targets businesses with revenues from $0 to $250 million and pairs the policy with built-in security monitoring, incident response and claims handling rather than selling those as add-ons. [1](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/products/class/cyber-insurance/ "Cyber insurance | CFC") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Cyber insurance product page's Cyber Proactive Response summary; CFC separately sells Cyber (admitted), Corporate cyber for businesses at $250 million and up, and a Cyber excess policy.)

## Issuing Insurer

- **Not publicly disclosed.** The Cyber Proactive Response application form names only CFC Underwriting Limited, an entity authorized and regulated by the UK Financial Conduct Authority, as the party administering the form. Neither the cyber product page nor the application discloses which specific insurer or Lloyd's syndicate capacity sits behind a US Cyber Proactive Response policy. [4](https://www.cfc.com/media/clyfotxn/cyber-one-page-application-us-v12.pdf "Cyber Proactive Response Insurance application form (US)") [5](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/support/regulatory-information/ "Regulatory information") (Scope: Application footer and the regulatory information page, both checked on 2026-09-23; CFC also operates Lloyd's Syndicate 1988 and CFC USA Inc.'s admitted and E&S licenses, but no page ties one of these specifically to Cyber Proactive Response.)

## Who It’s For

- CFC segments cyber eligibility by revenue: Cyber Proactive Response and Cyber (admitted) are positioned for businesses with revenues from $0 to $250 million, while Corporate cyber is for businesses at $250 million and above. [1](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/products/class/cyber-insurance/ "Cyber insurance | CFC") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Cyber product page product summaries; actual eligibility for a given applicant depends on underwriting.)

## Coverage Features

- Cyber Proactive Response includes crime cover, a 12-month indemnity period for business interruption, and data recreation cover, with unlimited claim reinstatements available at either no deductible or a single deductible at most. [1](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/products/class/cyber-insurance/ "Cyber insurance | CFC") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Cyber product page Key features list for Cyber Proactive Response.)

## Limits and Retentions

- For larger businesses, CFC's Corporate cyber product (for revenues of $250 million or more) has a published maximum line size of $25 million; the Cyber Proactive Response and Cyber (admitted) pages for smaller businesses do not publish a maximum dollar limit. [1](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/products/class/cyber-insurance/ "Cyber insurance | CFC") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Cyber product page Corporate cyber Key features; limit for any individual policy appears on its declarations.)

## Risk Services

- Every CFC cyber policyholder gets CFC Response, described as an in-house incident-response service available 24/7, plus a free mobile app offering dark web monitoring, phishing simulations and external network deep scanning. [2](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/response/ "Incident response | CFC") [3](https://www.cfc.com/media/mkkhlz5l/cfc_market-leading-cyber-insurance_brochure_may-2026_digital.pdf "Protecting businesses against cyber risk (cyber product brochure)") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Response page and cyber brochure; CFC characterizes its incident response team as one of the largest in-house teams in the industry, a claim not independently verified here.)

## How to Apply

- The US Cyber Proactive Response application is a one-page form asking whether multi-factor authentication is enforced for remote network access and email, whether backups are offline or MFA-secured, and whether the business had a cyber incident in the last three years. [4](https://www.cfc.com/media/clyfotxn/cyber-one-page-application-us-v12.pdf "Cyber Proactive Response Insurance application form (US)") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Cyber Proactive Response application form sections on cyber security controls and previous cyber incidents.)

## Claims Support

- CFC says its in-house cyber claims team resolves several thousand cyber claims a year and reports a 99.4% cyber claims acceptance rate over a recent 12-month period. [3](https://www.cfc.com/media/mkkhlz5l/cfc_market-leading-cyber-insurance_brochure_may-2026_digital.pdf "Protecting businesses against cyber risk (cyber product brochure)") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Cyber brochure claims statistics; these are company-reported figures and were not independently audited.)
