The Full Story
Why do we even bother buying cover when Tower Insurance ends up plastered across an extortion cartel's leak site anyway? Their frantic brokers are now fielding endless client queries whilst management scrambles to defend the brand with external cybersecurity consultants. To protect operations from this unverified drama, the insurer had to launch forensic investigations and alert regulators, standard protocol when you are hoping customer data was not genuinely flogged.
