(PRESS RELEASE) BRATISLAVA, 2-Sep-2026 — /EuropaWire/ — ESET has partnered with Cysurance to introduce an integrated cyber warranty protection programme for customers of its Managed Detection and Response services, combining cybersecurity protection with financial support following qualifying cyber incidents.

Under the partnership, businesses purchasing ESET PROTECT MDR or ESET PROTECT MDR Ultimate will automatically receive cyber warranty protection valued at $500,000 or $1 million, depending on the selected subscription tier.

The programme also provides customers with access to same-day cyber insurance without traditional underwriting, with Cysurance offering eligible ESET customers discounts of up to 60–80% compared with standard market premiums.

ESET has been approved by Cysurance as a preferred Managed Detection and Response vendor.

Ryan Grant, Country Manager, US & Canada at ESET North America, said businesses often encounter lengthy delays, complex applications and high premiums when seeking financial protection against cyber incidents.

He said the partnership gives ESET customers immediate warranty protection while simplifying the process of meeting cyber insurance coverage requirements.

Grant added that the offering supports ESET’s broader commitment to helping organisations strengthen their security and resilience.

MDR combined with financial protection

The partnership expands ESET’s cyber resilience offering by combining its Managed Detection and Response capabilities with financial protection designed to help organisations recover more quickly from qualifying cyber incidents.

Beyond warranty coverage, the agreement provides ESET with greater access to an ecosystem that includes insurers, brokers, managed service providers, incident response specialists and other cyber-risk stakeholders.

ESET said this broader network will strengthen its ability to support customers throughout the cyber resilience lifecycle, from prevention and detection through response and recovery.

Customers purchasing ESET PROTECT MDR will receive a $500,000 cyber warranty, while those selecting ESET PROTECT MDR Ultimate will receive coverage valued at $1 million.

The warranty is activated following purchase once all required cybersecurity controls have been enabled.

According to the companies, these controls are intended to reduce customers’ exposure to cyber risk before an incident while providing additional financial assurance if a qualifying breach occurs.

Claims can support urgent breach-response costs

Businesses can submit a warranty claim within 24 to 48 hours after discovering a breach to help cover urgent response requirements.

Eligible costs may include engaging forensic specialists, legal services and public relations support, as well as replacing compromised hardware.

Claims are handled through Cysurance’s streamlined process, designed to provide organisations with faster access to resources following qualifying cyber incidents.

Customers will also have access to Cysurance’s automated online portal, where they can optionally purchase additional cyber insurance within minutes without lengthy applications or questionnaires.

Because ESET has been vetted and approved as a preferred Cysurance vendor, eligible policyholders can receive premium discounts that the companies said may reach 60–80% below standard market rates.

Kirsten Bay, Co-Founder and CEO of Cysurance, said ESET’s broad cybersecurity platform and integrated approach to prevention, detection and response make it well suited to the company’s cyber warranty and insurance programmes.

She said the partnership is designed to give organisations both the technical protection needed to reduce cyber risk and the financial protection required to recover quickly when incidents occur.

Initial rollout in United States and Canada

The programme will initially be available in the United States and Canada, with global expansion expected as the partnership develops.

The companies said the planned international rollout will build on Cysurance’s global capabilities and ESET’s worldwide presence.

ESET MDR provides 24/7 threat monitoring, detection and response, combining AI-powered technology with human cybersecurity expertise.

ESET said pairing these services with Cysurance’s cyber warranty programme gives customers both proactive cybersecurity protection and financial support intended to accelerate recovery from qualifying incidents.
