Jim Davis and Bradley Dlatt was quoted in the Law.com article "CCPA is Elevating the Stakes Around Cyber Insurance Blind Spots", regarding cyber insurance policies under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).

“Companies are spending thousands of dollars annually on premiums with the belief that they are buying the type of insurance that’s going to cover all of their various risks," said Jim.

Bradley said many privacy policies allow clients to purchase specific cyber protections that could handle certain CCPA related claims. However, the scope is fairly limited.

“Unless you can show physical damage resulting from a data breach that then led to a CCPA claim, it may be difficult to get your property policy to respond,” Bradley said.
