Annual coverage of up to Dh44,000 is accessible which incorporates protection against theft of funds, information restoration, and cyberbullying.
As cybercrime keeps on representing a serious danger to people and businesses around the world, consumers in the UAE can now safeguard themselves against different kinds of cyber dangers. With the introduction of the EasyInsurance scheme by Etisalat, the UAE’s biggest telecom operator, residents can protect their telephones, PCs, and tablets against cyberattacks, blackmail robberies, online scams, and different types of digital threats. This protection coverage gives an additional layer of assurance to shield individual and delicate data, which is turning out to be progressively helpless against cyber criminals.
The telecommunications company has as of late extended its portfolio by offering different protection services including travel, health, automobile, and pet protection. This essential move has permitted the company to expand its income base and give its clients complete protection choices.
In addition to the existing insurance packages, UAE residents can now insure their devices through four different protection plans. These plans offer an annual coverage of up to $12,000 (Dh 44,000), which incorporates security against different dangers like theft of funds, data restoration, and cyberbullying. This new service gives added peace of mind to clients who depend on their devices for both personal and professional use.
Dr. Mohammed Hamad Al Kuwaiti, the head of cybersecurity for the UAE government, as of late advised UAE residents about the risks of using similar passwords for various devices and networks, like their office PC, cell phone, and home WiFi. He encouraged people to make separate passwords for every device and organize to work on their safety against cyberattacks.
In March, Etisalat cooperated with Cyberint to strengthen its cybersecurity foundation by incorporating real-time intelligence and monitoring solutions.
