A Changing Cybersecurity Landscape
Cybersecurity is no longer just about defense—it is about survival. As cyber threats grow more sophisticated and relentless, the question is not if an attack will happen, but when. Businesses must move beyond traditional protection measures and prepare for the financial impact of a breach. This is where a breach protection warranty becomes essential, offering a financial safety net that can mean the difference between recovery and catastrophe.
The Harsh Reality of Cyberattacks
Cyber threats are growing in sophistication, and no organization is immune. From small businesses to multinational corporations, the financial consequences of a breach can be severe. Beyond operational disruption, costs escalate quickly—legal fees, regulatory fines, customer compensation, and forensic investigations all add up.
“A strong cybersecurity strategy, when properly deployed and monitored, is only half the battle—financial preparedness is just as critical. ProStream’s Breach Protection with Warranty not only defends businesses against cyber threats but also provides the financial support needed for recovery, minimizing disruption and ensuring long-term resilience. While our offering is a limited warranty (R1 million) designed for the SME market, larger corporates and enterprises can benefit from tailored, high-value solutions in partnership with an underwriter.”

Breach Protection Warranties: A Critical Safeguard
Breach protection warranties, such as those offered through ProStream’s Secure Data Ecosystem (SDE), provide businesses with more than just cyber defense—they deliver a crucial financial buffer to manage the aftermath of an attack.
Key Benefits of a Breach Protection Warranty
Coverage for Remediation Costs
Recovering from a cyberattack can be expensive. ProStream’s Breach Protection with Warranty offers up to ZAR 1 million in coverage, helping businesses address vulnerabilities, restore systems, and recover lost data without bearing the full financial burden.
Legal and Regulatory Support
Data breaches often trigger legal and regulatory scrutiny. The warranty addresses legal fees and penalties, ensuring businesses can navigate compliance challenges without the risk of severe financial penalties.
Forensic Investigations
Understanding how a breach occurred is critical to preventing future incidents. The warranty addresses forensic investigation costs, giving businesses the insights needed to strengthen their cybersecurity posture.
Customer Compensation
Trust is invaluable. After a breach, businesses must repair relationships with affected customers. The warranty includes provisions for customer compensation, reinforcing brand credibility and restoring confidence.
