Slice Labs Inc., the provider of cloud-based on-demand insurance, has announced work with XL Catlin to create an on-demand cyber insurance solution for U.S. small and medium-sized business (SMBs). “SMBs must contend with the same cyber issues as large corporates,” John Coletti, XL Catlin’s Chief Underwriting Officer of Cyber & Technology in North America, said in a press release. “Unfortunately, they often do not have dedicated IT teams and the same information security resources that larger companies have. We’ve partnered with Slice to transform cyber insurance – making it easy to buy and simple to understand for them – with the ultimate goal of protecting SMBs from the potentially devastating impact of a cyber-attack.”
