Is cyber insurance necessary for home-based freelancers?
Mint Chennai
|August 15, 2025
I'm 28 years old and recently started freelancing full-time from home. I handle most of my work, finances, and personal life online—from storing client files to using digital wallets and internet banking.
Lately, I've been hearing more about rising cyber fraud and data breaches, and it's starting to worry me. What if I fall victim to a scam, my devices are hacked, or sensitive information is stolen? Is there any way to protect myself financially from such threats? I've never purchased cyber insurance before—what should I know and look for when considering it?
