Key elements of cover include: 

• Liability to third parties 
• Reimbursement of the costs incurred to respond to a breach 
• Business Interruption - reimbursement for the loss of profits resulting from the breach, as well as any additional necessary expenses it may need to incur to continue business as usual 
• Hardware repair or replacement costs
