Equipment Breakdown Coverage and Why It Matters
January 2023Typically, the equipment inside your home isn't covered by homeowners policies. Our equipment breakdown endorsement can protect you when issues arise.
However, the convenience of connecting computers, laptops, and smartphones to Wi-Fi—plus smart devices like baby monitors, refrigerators, fire alarms, and door locks—also makes us more vulnerable to cybercrime.
In many cases, you will now have to hire an outside expert to reformat your hard drive, reinstall the operating system and software, and restore data from the backup.
Then, there’s the matter of any personal information that might have been stolen and how it might be used. The fallout could be significant. (With Cyber Protection, after a $500 deductible, many of these losses will be covered by Mutual of Enumclaw.)
You never know when you’ll need a backup. Have an external hard drive in your home for your laptop or desktop. You can also back up important documents and data in the cloud by subscribing to a service like Carbonite.
If you suspect a security breach, don’t wait to react. Contact us right away. We’re here to help you through it every step of the way.
At Mutual of Enumclaw, we want you to enjoy the convenience of wireless connectivity while knowing that if the worst happens, it’s going to be okay.
