Authors: David L. Beck, Rene L. Siemens
If you thought you did not need cyber insurance before, Uncle Sam may cause you to think otherwise. On October 13, 2011, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Division of Corporation Finance issued guidance on disclosure obligations relating to cyber security risks and incidents. The guidance, which is based on existing disclosure requirements and is effective immediately, emphasizes the need for SEC registrants to provide "timely, comprehensive, and accurate information about [cyber] risks and events that a reasonable investor would consider important to an investment decision."

Given Recent Ruling, Will Negligence Claims Be Covered Under CGL Policies in Virginia?
Source: Perspectives on Insurance Recovery Newsletter - Summer 2012
Authors: Peter M. Gillon, James P. Bobotek

Steadfast Insurance Co.,1 the court held that when a lawsuit alleges that a company engaged in an intentional or volitional act where (i) it subjectively intended or anticipated the result, or (ii) the result was a natural or probable consequence of the intentional act, that company is not entitled to a defense or indemnity under its commercial general liability insurance coverage because a covered "occurrence" has not been alleged.
