NATA has launched a cyber insurance program specifically designed for aviation businesses, expanding its insurance offerings to address growing digital threats. The program provides a targeted solution to help aviation businesses mitigate cyber risks while maintaining customer trust and operational stability.
Coverage includes business interruption and extortion expenses, forensic and breach recertification costs, and data and system restoration. The program was developed to support NATA’s membership, which includes FBOs and air charter operators, in safeguarding sensitive assets and ensuring continuity of operations.
Underwritten by E-Risk Services, a subsidiary of Nationwide Mutual Insurance, and administered by AssuredPartners Aerospace Programs, the program is designed to provide members with specialized coverage and a streamlined online submission process.
“The digital transformation of general aviation yields immense efficiencies, but also introduces complex risks that require specialized protection,” said NATA president and CEO Curt Castagna. “NATA is proud to deliver a new cyber insurance program that empowers our members to navigate this environment while protecting their data, operations, and invaluable reputation, from the ground to the cloud.”
Eric Barfield, president of AssuredPartners Aerospace, added, “In today’s interconnected world, cybersecurity coverage is becoming a fundamental aspect of aviation safety and business continuity. Addressing the sophisticated cyber threats facing general aviation requires a united front, and we are pleased to once again partner with NATA to deliver a program that significantly strengthens NATA members’ digital defenses and operational resilience.”
