That's why Raghnall is thrilled to introduce their brand new 'Individual Cyber Insurance' on August 22, 2022 - a first-of-its-kind integrated platform in India that will safeguard you from all the potential damages of cyber threats with utmost finesse!
Naturally, some people might think it is not necessary to invest in personal
, but they need to know that cyber attackers don't give warnings in advance before they invade your digital space! While there are some basic things that can somewhat reduce your vulnerability to such attacks - such as keeping your systems and softwares updated, installing firewalls, setting different passwords for different accounts, etc. - they cannot eliminate the risks completely. Perhaps, knowing a little better about some cyber-attacks that can rob your entire life savings in no time, can help you comprehend the necessity of a personal cyber insurance policy:
- Malware - Malware comprises a range of malicious softwares like ransomware, spyware, viruses, worms, etc., which gets installed and activated when you unknowingly click on a dangerous link or attachment. Malware attacks can block your access to key network components, steal your data from the hard drive, install more hazardous softwares, and even make your system inoperable.
- Phishing attacks - Phishing scams or attacks involve fake communication in the form of a legitimate-looking email or message that requests for your sensitive personal information, like password, credit card number, PIN, etc. If you click on the links in such emails or messages and provide them with these details, you can inadvertently end up losing your hard-earned finances!
- Online Harassment - The leakage of your personal photos, videos, chats, browser history and more to a random cyber-criminal indulging in nefarious activities on the web can have disastrous consequences for you. Online harassment through cyber stalking can not only cause you financial losses but also severely affect your mental health due to the blatant invasion of privacy.
These are just a few of the dozens of cyber threats waiting to make the Internet a virtual hell for you! But there's no need to worry, as Raghnall's Cyber Insurance is proud to be India's first one-of-its-kind integrated platform which empowers users for assessing personal data theft or breaches, and also for buying insurance - a unique one-stop solution that no other insurer in the country is offering yet. To safeguard your finances from the perils of cyber-attacks, Raghnall curates the finest personal cyber insurance in the market from top companies like ICICI Lombard, HDFC Ergo, SBI General, and Bajaj Allianz. On this platform, customers can get independent product rating, review, and comparison, allowing them to select the right insurance plan that perfectly suits their distinct budget and requirements - whether they are homemakers, teenagers, or working professionals.
Another coveted feature that customers can avail themselves of with Raghnall's integrated Individual Cyber Insurance is their 'Cyber Theft Scanner' tool. These days, it is a common phenomenon for most of us to store our personal documents like PAN card, Aadhaar card, etc. on our phones and other devices or on cloud storage.

But fortunately, the Cyber Theft Scanner tool can let you rest easy by enabling you to check if your data is breached or stolen!
"At Raghnall, we understand that the risks posed by cyber-attacks to a person and their subsequent results can be unimaginable.
