The Emerging Need for Cyber Insurance: A Key Focus of the Partnership

As part of the strategic collaboration, the two companies will roll out a comprehensive cyber insurance offering. The product will protect individuals and businesses from a variety of online threats, including cyber-attacks, cyber extortion threats, identity theft, credit card fraud, phishing & theft of funds, smart devices & wearables, and online shopping fraud.

“This collaboration directly addresses the growing digital risks that our customers face daily. By introducing robust cyber insurance products, we’re empowering individuals and businesses to confidently manage the challenges of the digital age. Our aim is to not only provide a safety net but also to lead the way in creating smarter, more secure digital ecosystems for everyone.” said Mr. Aziz Aluthman.

Explaining cyber risks to business and individuals, Mr. Al Mannai said, “With the rapid advancements in technology and the increasing reliance on digital platforms, businesses are becoming more susceptible to cyberattacks, which can result in substantial financial losses, reputational harm, and operational disturbances. To mitigate these risks, there is a growing demand for cyber insurance, a specialized product designed to shield businesses from the financial repercussions of cyber incidents. Cyber insurance is crucial, especially as cyber threats become more sophisticated and frequent, forming an essential part of a comprehensive risk management strategy that ensures businesses can respond to and recover from cyber incidents effectively.”

He added, “As individuals increasingly engage in online banking, shopping, and social networking, the risk of personal data breaches and identity theft escalates. Cyber insurance for individuals can offer coverage for expenses related to identity restoration, legal consultations, and potential losses from fraudulent transactions. Having this form of insurance provides not only financial protection but also peace of mind, knowing there is a structured response plan to manage the aftermath of a cyber incident. As cyber threats grow more pervasive, individuals must consider cyber insurance an essential aspect of their digital security strategy to protect their digital identities and personal assets effectively.”

Driving Business Growth and Regional Expansion

In addition to enhancing the customer experience, the collaboration is designed to drive growth for both companies. By combining their expertise, QIC and Ooredoo can tap into new markets, explore additional revenue streams, and develop further solutions that respond to the needs of the digital economy. While the initial focus will be on the Qatari market, both companies have ambitious plans for regional expansion, with a view of extending their offering to other markets they operate in such as Oman, Kuwait, and beyond.

“The partnership is poised to make a significant impact on the insurance and telecommunications sectors, setting the stage for continued innovation and growth across the region,” concluded Al Mannai.
