Intellectual Property Insurance in Brighton
Standard cyber policies pay claims; Cyber NOW pays attention. The product is built around a 24/7 incident response panel that you call within the first hour of a suspected attack, rather than a claim form you submit later. Forensic IT, breach counsel, regulator notification and PR all run from the same panel, which keeps the response coordinated and the loss adjusters out of the critical path. For Brighton SMEs—where ransomware and business-email-compromise are the dominant threats—the speed of containment usually matters more than the indemnity limit on paper.

Frequently asked questions
- What does intellectual property insurance cover?
- It covers legal defence costs, damages and settlements when your business is accused of infringing someone else's patent, trademark, copyright or design rights. Some policies also cover the cost of pursuing infringers.
- Isn't IP covered by professional indemnity insurance?
- PI insurance may cover some IP claims arising from professional services, but it typically excludes product-related IP disputes and doesn't cover the cost of enforcing your own IP rights. Dedicated IP insurance fills these gaps.
- Who needs IP insurance most?
- Businesses creating technology, software, branded products or creative works are most exposed. Companies entering new markets or launching innovative products face particular risk of inadvertent infringement claims.
