Is this only for companies in Chicago?

No. Headquarters in Illinois is the usual starting point, including suburbs and downstate. Remote teams are common. We rate and place based on where the company operates, not a single ZIP code. We transact only where licensed.

Cyber insurance Illinois

Cyber insurance for Illinois technology companies.

The buying problem is rarely “do we need cyber.” It is a customer contract, a board question, or a first real data set, and a deadline attached to it. A licensed advisor maps what the schedule asks for against what a market will actually write, then takes the file to market. We transact only where licensed.

What people searching this actually need

Illinois companies get stuck in the same place: procurement sent a certificate request, or a breach questionnaire, and the policy they have (or do not have) does not match the schedule. Searching “cyber insurance Illinois” is a way to find someone who will read that schedule, not a rate table.

We are an independent agency, not a carrier. Coverage, if bound, is issued by licensed insurers. We work with technology and modern businesses that are based in Illinois or that employ people here. If we cannot assist in your state, we will say so.

Bring the document, not a guess

The insurance exhibit from the MSA or vendor onboarding packet
A current cyber policy or declarations page, if you have one
Where the company is headquartered, and where employees work
What data you hold: contact lists, payment data, health, or source code

This site does not accept uploads. After you submit, email the exhibit to the address in the application.

Breach responseForensics, notification, and the costs of a covered incident. This is usually the first reason a contract asks for cyber.

RansomwareBusiness interruption and the response around an extortion event, subject to the policy. Underwriters will ask how you back up and who can reach production.

Privacy liabilityClaims that you failed to protect personal or confidential data. Illinois BIPA and similar privacy statutes are a live underwriting question for companies with biometric or consumer data.

Social engineeringVendor-impersonation wires are a frequent claim. Limits and conditions for this coverage are often narrower than the rest of the form. Read them before you rely on them.

As you grow

Enterprise customerProcurement may request limits in the multi-million-dollar range, plus additional insured and waiver language. That is a certificate problem as much as a premium problem.

New statesRemote hires change workers compensation. Illinois generally requires coverage if you have even one employee, with limited exceptions under the Act. Remote work also changes how some privacy and cyber questions are asked. Tell us where people sit.

SOC 2 in progressA Type II report does not replace insurance. It often improves how the submission is received. “None yet” is a real answer.

Questions we hear

Not with us. Cyber is underwritten against your business, your controls, and your contracts. The form gathers what the markets need. We aim to respond within one business day.

No. Headquarters in Illinois is the usual starting point, including suburbs and downstate. Remote teams are common. Placement depends on where the company operates and where we are authorized to transact. We do not sell insurance in every state from this page.

Non-malicious outages may fall outside standard cyber coverage, although some forms provide system-failure coverage. Customer claims arising from a product or service failure are more often a Technology E&O question. The policy form, including exclusions and how the event is described, controls. Some packages combine the two. Some exclude the event.
