Does Cyber Insurance Cover Intellectual Property?
Sometimes, for specified copyright or trademark claims tied to a covered cyber event; unrelated IP disputes may need separate coverage.
The exact event trigger and liability grant determine whether a claim qualifies.
Check the cyber form’s covered-event definition, IP grant, sublimit, and exclusions. Ask about dedicated IP coverage for disputes over ownership, licensing, patents, or trade secrets, and compare defense and enforcement terms.
