Our take
Most businesses are aware that cyber security software must be used to protect themselves against cyberattacks, but few are aware of the sheer variety of attacks present in today's digital landscape. This makes it increasingly difficult for businesses to equip sufficient protection, resulting in worldwide cyber attacks in 2021 alone costing over $6 trillion.
Baobab insures businesses for cyberattacks, using its team of cyber security experts to assess companies for risk, secure their business, and prevent financial loss. The company's approach to risk assessment not only protects companies against cyber threats themselves but also prevents them from having to spend time, money, and resources on evaluating their own cyber security stack.
Several other cyber security insurance companies seek to protect businesses from cyber threats, but Baobab has taken a unique approach by providing solutions for not just enterprises, but small businesses too. By taking care of this end-to-end process, Baobab is preventing businesses from having to spend time and resources on dealing with cyber security themselves, leaving them with more time to scale.
