Data Restoration & Reconstitution Costs (Crime)

Data Restoration and Reconstitution Costs cover pays for expenses to restore electronic data and business records after a covered crime loss. This includes costs to recreate accounting records, customer databases, and operational data. Criminal activity like system attacks, fraudulent data changes, or theft of storage devices can cause this damage. The cover reflects the heavy effort needed to rebuild financial records and prove a loss amount after a crime. Forensic accountants may need to recreate transaction histories. IT specialists may need to recover corrupted databases. Staff may need time to re-enter lost information. In Crime insurance, this cover works alongside cyber insurance data restoration cover, rather than duplicating it. It focuses on rebuilding data to quantify and document the crime loss. Policies may require the insured to use approved vendors. They often set a sub-limit too. This cover recognises that full loss documentation matters, both for the claim and for any recovery action against the wrongdoer.
