Tip 2: Declare Your WFH Inventory. If your staff uses company IT at home, add the WFH extension. Standard office policies only cover assets at the registered business address.
Tip 3: Bundle Cyber & D&O. Standard office policies only cover data *reconstruction*. For ransomware and regulatory defence (PDPL), you need a standalone Cyber bolt-on.
