Qatar Insurance Company (QIC), the leading insurer in Qatar and the MENA region, has introduced the country’s first personal cyber insurance product, designed to protect individuals against growing cyber risks in daily digital life. The coverage safeguards policyholders from financial losses due to cyberattacks, online shopping and credit card fraud, phishing, identity theft, and cyber extortion. It also provides financial support for restoring damaged digital systems, covering ransom payments, and theft of funds.
Salem Al Mannai, Group CEO of QIC, highlighted Qatar’s high internet penetration and the increasing exposure to cyber threats, stressing QIC’s role in empowering people to navigate the digital world confidently. The launch aligns with Qatar’s National Cyber Security Strategy 2024–2030 and Qatar National Vision 2030, supporting the country’s broader digital transformation agenda.
The personal cyber insurance is available exclusively to QIC customers as an optional add-on to home contents, comprehensive car, or travel insurance for QAR 100 annually, offering individuals peace of mind and financial protection against digital threats.
