Protect Yourself Against the Rising Tide of Personal Cyber Crime in Canada
Personal cybercrime is on the rise in Canada, making it crucial for individuals to safeguard themselves against online fraud and identity theft. According to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre (CAFC), Canadians have lost over $100 million to online fraud, and 1 in 5 people are likely to fall victim to identity theft. With just a few pieces of personal information, cybercriminals can force individuals to transfer money, commit credit card fraud, or even demand ransoms for infected devices.

To tackle this growing threat, EasyInsure offers a comprehensive personal cyber insurance policy that goes beyond basic protection, covering wider risks such as cybercrime, cyberbullying, and cyberstalking. Traditionally aimed at businesses, cyber insurance is now an essential safeguard for individuals, given the increasing use of technology at home.

This partnership means individuals will have expert guidance and support when faced with cyber-crime.
