    Why cyber risk is a small-business problem

    South Carolina businesses run on card readers, booking apps and email, and so do the scammers targeting them. A phishing email, a ransomware lockout or a wire transfer to the wrong account can stop operations and trigger notification duties to customers. Small businesses rarely have IT security staff, which is why a coverage-plus-services approach makes sense.

    How Coterie’s cyber coverage works

    Coterie (Insurance provider) offers cyber coverage as an endorsement to its business owner’s policy or general liability policy, not as a standalone policy. You add it while quoting your BOP or GL, so everything lives on one policy.

    What’s covered

    The cyber endorsement combines first-party expense coverage (privacy breach expenses, system compromise, extortion threats, funds transfer fraud and payment card industry violations, with optional business interruption) and third-party liability for media, network security and data compromise, including privacy and regulatory claims. All of it falls under one aggregate: $50K standard, with optional limits up to $100K.

    Help when something goes wrong

    Policyholders also get incident response help from Coterie’s cyber partner (forensic consultation, ransomware expertise, breach counseling and notification assistance) plus an online portal with a password manager, breach-readiness templates and a self-assessment of your data risks.

    Who qualifies

    Cyber is available for South Carolina businesses with up to $5M in annual revenue and up to 50 employees (15 for contractors), along with Coterie’s standard BOP and GL eligibility. Availability is confirmed by business address at quote time, and all coverage is subject to underwriting.

    Getting a quote

    Coverage is priced by business type, and the endorsement is designed to be an affordable add-on.

    The data restaurants handle

    South Carolina restaurants handle card payments at the table, online ordering and reservation systems every day. Full Service Restaurants is #1 on Coterie’s Top 100 classes list (December 2025), so it’s a class Coterie actively writes BOP and GL coverage for.

    A realistic risk for restaurants

    A compromised card reader or a ransomware attack on the POS can expose guest card data and shut down ordering on a Friday night. Payment card industry violations and breach notification costs can follow. Steps like strong passwords and staff training help, but they won’t stop every attack.

    What the cyber endorsement covers

    The cyber endorsement combines first-party expense coverage (privacy breach expenses, system compromise, extortion threats, funds transfer fraud and payment card industry violations, with optional business interruption) and third-party liability for media, network security and data compromise, including privacy and regulatory claims. All of it falls under one aggregate: $50K standard, with optional limits up to $100K.

    Response services

    Policyholders also get incident response help from Coterie’s cyber partner (forensic consultation, ransomware expertise, breach counseling and notification assistance) plus an online portal with a password manager, breach-readiness templates and a self-assessment of your data risks.

    Eligibility and availability

    Cyber is an endorsement, so it’s added to a Coterie BOP or GL policy. Eligible businesses have up to $5M in revenue and up to 50 employees. Availability is confirmed by business address at quote time, and all coverage is subject to underwriting.

    How to add it

    Quote your BOP or GL online and add cyber when you get to coverage options. Pricing depends on business type. If you’d rather talk first, America Insurance Brokers can help. Coterie’s digital process means you can see coverage options in minutes, and America Insurance Brokers stays involved as your independent agency for questions, certificates and renewals. Policyholders also get Manage My Risk, a free set of safety guides and risk assessments.

    The data CPA firms handle

    South Carolina CPA firms handle Social Security numbers, bank details and tax returns every day. Offices of Certified Public Accountants is #76 on Coterie’s Top 100 classes list (December 2025), so it’s a class Coterie actively writes BOP and GL coverage for.

    A realistic risk for CPA firms

    Tax season brings phishing emails pretending to be clients or the IRS, and a single compromised inbox can expose hundreds of returns. Funds transfer fraud is another concern when client refunds or payments get rerouted. Steps like strong passwords and staff training help, but they won’t stop every attack.

    What the cyber endorsement covers

    The cyber endorsement combines first-party expense coverage (privacy breach expenses, system compromise, extortion threats, funds transfer fraud and payment card industry violations, with optional business interruption) and third-party liability for media, network security and data compromise, including privacy and regulatory claims.
